Are you going to continue to post operations on http://www.obriensweb.com/sked and http://www.projectsandparts.com/pactor/ for the scanning? Perhaps your scanning of the freq list will give me a better opportunity to work you. I did connect with Demetre, SV1UY, on 20m yesterday and had a brief but nice chat. The band was a bit busy but we connected succesfully. It surprised both of us; He had wondered about the ability of PACTOR I to pull it off due to the competition of nearby signals who came and went. Overall, some contacts were made with KU2A (Nick), NT3K in NM, N1DP in ME, NO4Y in NC, WB2JEP (AL) - running MultiPSK, and VK2PN. The QSO with AL, WB2JEP lasted the better part of an hour. I'm still trying for W0JAB (John) and you, of course. I've heard no signal from you whatsoever to date, same think for W0JAB. I'm still trying and I'm sure the effort will pay off before long.
