Thanks for doing that Bruce. You helped me log a new one on 160.
I worked them at 0348Z on Feb. 22, under extremely poor conditions. Most
of the difficulty was on my end. With man-made noise to deal with and no
receive antennas, hearing TI9/3Z9DX was touch and go. The op at their
end did a superb job of copying my 100 watts and making the QSO. My
thanks to whoever it was on the island who put me in the log.

Mike. I emailed Dom asking for a 160 meter, time specific, North
America standby. On 02/22/2015 they were on working mixed instead of
just Europe. The opening to Northern New England was only about
15 minutes long. Found their listening frequency, called them at
0331 UTC and made the contact on the first call. It also worked out
well with many other North America stations making the contact.
Thanks Mike, appreciate the help,
Bruce-K1FZ
