[NCDXA] 17 Meters DX

[Fred Matos]

Hello DXers....
To correct some of the info that I presented at the roundtable this evening..
I worked 9N7AA on 17 CW at 1244 UTC....he was very strong, and operating split.  Robert, S53R, is an excellent op.  
I worked 5UA99WS on 17 SSB at 1714 UTC.  There was a huge European wave, and the only way he heard me was when I came in over top of a European that he called on for a call sign fill-in.  
5UA99WS is a new licensee, but he's surprisingly good at handling pileups working simplex.  Except that he apparently answers the stronger callers.  In my case, it was the huge EU wave that I could not work over or around.  So I was clever calling over top of another station during a fill-in.  
I also worked 5UA99WS on 15 SSB in the DX contest.  He's an ATNO for me, and he uploads to LoTW very quickly.  
I have seen him spotted by US stations numerous times on 21.207 in our afternoons.  He loves 207.
