I hear VK's every day on 20 meters around 0800 Z on a simple
dipole. But they might be big guns.....

Don't have a mic. I just cut of the connector because I needed to
feed my TS-870 with PSK/MFSK audio and hook up the sound card.
Anyway, PSK is far superiour with weak signals. I am suprised what
twpsk can do with a weak and noisy signal.
I will be on 14.073 between 22.00 Z and 00.00 Z today (sunday).
Will try and listen for VK tomorrow morning and rest of the week
around 0800 Z. Callsign is PA4TU. I will call CQ debian .....
