Now looking thru the overnite shots the peak from zm2e in 3d2 was just a 
couple of hours before dawn in Fiji  when the signal was huge - Im guessing 
a high S number and Im sure a SSB qso would have worked then (I was sleeping 
about a mile away!) - ill forward captures to bob and anyone else that want 
them. We saw the transmissions go off after dawn our time. Thanks Bob and 
crew.
