Thanks to their location 9,000 miles from me with a beam heading of 2.4
degrees (through the aurora), a QSO requires great propagation, great
antennas, and great ops on both ends, you've got to be there during the
hour or so each day when there's propagation on any given band, AND
you've got to get through the wall of east coast stations who are 20 dB
stronger and the EU stations who are 30 dB stronger.
Every time I've heard this team there's been a great operator at the
other end. I've managed to work them twice, on 17M CW and 20M CW. So
far, the only time I've not heard them on SSB well enough to call was
for a half hour on 15M, and the op was working JA (and making great
rate). By the time he listened for US, propagation was gone.
