Hey, Steve.
You are making my night here!!!!
Will definitely look for W1AW/KH8 this week-end!
Also, my TS590 arrived back here today from Kenwood Service Center East
after undergoing the ALC power spike mod, so will get that set back up this
week-end.
May even do a little bit of the Sweepstakes contest as well.

Tom,
Don't give up hope. You had said that you thought the W1AW/KH8 was going to
do this week as well, and looks like you are right. I heard them this
evening just after 2300 UTC on 28.035, weak but copyable here.
Maybe you can snag them this weekend on CW or a WARC band while everybody is
doing SS. Also heard them Monday afternoon on 10 SSB, so they have been
doing both modes.
