Mar 31, 0400 UTC, Mellish Reef. We are fully operational now, although work continues to enhance the station. 40 meters was very good this morning towards Europe (and, of course, Japan) but the pile ups were dense and unruly, resulting in a lower QSO rate. We have moved to 30 meters, which was open to NA and JA. Fortunately, the JA stations are disciplined which allowed us to work more stations. Low Bands: Last night was miserable on 160: high noise and weak NA and EU signals resulted in a low QSO count. Even the JA stations were weak. At one point we had to QSY to 80, as 160 was almost unusable. This morning we have built a large pennant and hope that it will help with the noise tonight. Also, will move the TX FRQ down to 1822.5 (if free) to allow a larger split for the JA stations. Will listen for NA above 1825.0.
