Who\'s going to try and work them? I got them on 20 meter CW earlier, hopefully I can find them on some more bands later on.

I will be trying this weekend coming up! :59:

Worked them on 15 and 40 in the CW contest, as well as phone on 15, 20 and 40.

Hi Ryan,
Nice to see you.

Why hello there!

I worked them on 15 phone last Saturday with 100 watts. I had tried to work them on 20 meters Thursday and we had a bad thunderstorm come through and I had to pull the plug quick. It was neat to work them. I also worked the USS Lexington on 20 meters Saturday. I had not worked a ship before. That was cool as well.

I managed to work VP6DX on 17, 15, 40, 80 in both CW and SSB. 20 M CW, I could never break the pileups on 20 SSB. I also worked them with 10 watts on 17 SSB just to see if I could do it!
Not bad for 100 watts and a G5RV which is not that high up at the apex.
Never heard them on 12 or 10 meters due to propagation here in southwest Ontario.
They did a great job. I know a couple of times I worked them their signal was S5 or less, so I know I was not that strong to them.

Nice, great job, and welcome to this site.
