That is not a fair assessment INMHO. I believe it is a question of experience, circumstances and probably a lot of other things. These chaps live in an overheated tent under what we may call primitive circumstances and it is probably not so easy to think clearly, except for getting on the air as much as possible. We should respect that + give them some contructive input on how things can be improved - if at all possible.
KP3 did a superb job on 30 m this morning ( 06-07 UTC ) - excellent operator ! I just did not have propagation good enough to cross the pond due to Aurora Borealis, which is prevalent at this time of the year in Scandinavia. Many people in central and south Europe worked him. He was just above the noise ( sometimes ) here ! I am keeping my fingers crossed for better openings before they leave !! 73 MX Rag LA5HE -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of worldonline Sent: 17. desember 2005 00:09 To: Ragnar Otterstad; Bill; DX-NEWS Subject: Re: [DX-CHAT] RE: [DX-NEWS] N3KS/KP5 I think also, It's DX'pédition only for United States Look the spots !
