If I had to rely on luck, my DX logbook would be empty. I rely on my location, equipment, antennas, and the experience I have gained in 55 years of hamming.

Only the clueless rely on luck.... And they usually end up on eHam whining about poor condx.

PV8ADI is having quite the run on 14.024.  Keeps getting spotted as VP8STI.

Simplex, of course.

The suspense reminded me of K1N.  It was John W2GD who was brave enough to fire up the first station on 40m CW.  I met John at Visalia and I thanked him for my very first K1N contact on 40m CW.  The second K1N contact was on 80m and the third was on 160m.  Gosh I wish I could work VP8STI in that order :D
