Worked JS1UFF this morning on 1815 at 11:43Z. He popped up on the panadapter
and, at first, I figured it must be someone in the US as the signal was quite
big (i.e. loud). I didn't note but certainly 20dB or more above my noise floor.
That's on one of the receive antenna arrays with no preamp.
Tuning there it was JS1UFF just finishing a cq. Dave, W0FLS, worked him then I
called and worked him. I think he's the first JA I've worked this season.
Oddly no other stations from JA or that area were heard. He seemed to leave the
band shortly after I worked him.
I hope this means we'll start to enjoy some better prop on 160 as its been
pretty sparse so far this fall.
