Contrary to some of the posts all is not well even with west coast guys
working 4W Land. So far I've invested 3 full mornings beginning at 0330
local. On all occasions the have been Q5 copy for hours at a time. I
have been able to copy them one full hour past sunrise in AZ. This
morning the peak was before sunrise and they were pretty steady at S5
with peaks of S7 or more. I called for over two hours. Nothing. They
have what seems serious noise on NA RX antenna. Judging by the stations
calling and those that did work 4W8X, the later were just plain blessed
and lucky.
