DX Report 11/21/16
« on: November 21, 2016, 04:45:55 AM »
We have a few good ones to report, so let's get with it.

XW0YO this one is new to DX world 14.006 0710Z

5H1WW worked yesterday easily noted on 10.110  0200Z. Lots of operating also on 20.

TO2EE this is St.Barts, back yard DX but if you do not have it worked on your list this is an easy one. 10.104 2340Z

VP8LP 21.331 2220Z.

XZ1A operation seems to be weakly heard on the West Coast, most of the rest of the country report not a peep. This is indeed unusual since during the window for Asia several Japanese stations were heard. Plus, the band was very good towards Asia and I am referring to 20 meters two nights ago. Yet, no sign of XZ1A.

It appears when they change governments, rules change about radio, when I first worked XZ they were in a revolution period and used the prefix 1Z, Thus appeared on the bands were 1Z1A and 1Z9A, if I recall none were acceptable by the league. In a short time they became XZ1A and XZ9A, Over the years we have qsos on 20 and 15, but nothing else, was hoping for ten meters with this operation, but do not think that will happen.
