Good you worked the H44 on 50MHz there Wayne, heard him twice and very weak at that, also heard Antoine 3D2AG two or three times a 539 at very best on CW. Very few of the FK8 gang around, only heard one.
OK Leigh and Hayden on the digital modes on 50MHz, sorry lads, they don't interest me. The path 2017/2018 summer season seemed to favour the south, plenty of VK3, VK5 and VK7 plus ZL. Accessed quite a few VK7 and the the two VK5 53MHz FM repeaters and worked a few of the regulars.
Interesting that the southern people in VK3 and VK7 worked into the Philippines, that path totally skipped over me, not a thing heard of the DU this way. Wasn't concerned as not a ATNO for me, I tend to concentrate on ATNO's.
Unlike last summer zero noted from Guam or Hawaii which are usually regulars in the summer season.
