Hi Jay/group His TX conditions are unknown to me, but his 160m antenna looks impressive, google his call... I received him on a resonant version of your version of the K9AY LF antenna with two loops
After some trying another Japanese station has demonstrated the capability of crossing the Pacific on 2200m. Congrats to Kunikazu Togashi, JA7NI who was captured here this morning between 1130-1300UT
