Every afternoon I swing the beam into the Pacific, listening for who ever, around the 27.555 area.
At 3:00 pm I started hearing the familiar sound coming from the S.W. area, telling me there might be a opening.. Then at 3:10 (dst) a station popped in from Indonesia, we talked for about 3 minutes.

Then nothing heard for awhile except for a couple stations in New Caledonia and of course Austrialia , then around 4:00pm I heard another station from Indonesia, made contact with him for about 2 min., - I already had him in the log book from the last 2 cycles.

Short opening and first for me this year into that area.
 

Well I must admit that the dx gods were with me again this afternoon - two more contacts into Indonesia with my mighty export radio....he he.
