Doug just emailed that he will try to be on the next FO-29 at 2105utc. He has been very busy working on the radio station in Jacmel and hasn't been able to get on the afternoon passes.
Several satellite ops including N8MH, W5PFG, N8RO and KE8AKW worked him on 14251 last night after 0000z. He might be on again tonight. Conditions to the US were very good and his 5W FT817 and dipole were doing an amazing job. He worked 3 ZL's that I heard as well.
Hopefully he will be more active Thursday and Friday on the birds. They leave Saturday. 73, John K8YSE
That was me, not Mark! Haha.
He had an excellent signal here in Washington, DC on 20m last night with his 5 watts and a dipole.
