Congratulations, Tree. I heard them come out of the noise a few times around 0330 UTC here in Southern California. They were briefly loud enough that I could clearly hear them call a very big gun station in Ohio before they faded again. I had to be elsewhere later in the evening, so I may have missed the party.

Well - after six years - a new country is in the log!  (A50BOC was the last
one)

3Y0K toyed with us last night - with a 449 on peaks signal about an hour
before their sunrise.  Few QSOs were made however and they went to FT8 once
or twice...  but then came back to CW about 30 minutes before their sunrise
and their signal kept building and building.  Around 0510 UTC, they were
several S-units above the noise on both the Beverage and the TX Vertical.

A number of NA stations made it into the log.  #249 here for me.

ALSO - the Stew Perry spring test is coming up next weekend.
