Good morning, Stan and Bob Well, I was afraid that 80 wouldn't make the trip to Texas. I've been monitoring since 11:30Z, and nothing on the waterfall. Thought I saw a signal on 3582.19, but

WE are getting a good start. Just worked Don, KC4OBB, on 80M. Not too strong but good copy and in the log for the APE Hunter Certificate. Don is a great fan. Just check his QRZ page for proof. Bob

Will be looking for you guys on 80 this am. Maybe 30??? 73 -- Dave NU4N #1657

Conditions were tough today, but we have 143 Q's in the log. Too tired to continue tonite. Fourteen hours is enough, even for an APE!! See you abut 7:30 on 80M/40M and hope to get some electrons to

After monitoring for them on 80M for near an hour I finally saw Stan and worked him. He is at 3.581.39. I can still see him here in Florida but there is some fading. Bill AG4QX

We a re still on 40M and will move to 80M and 40M soon. Bob saw an Alert for 6M and is calling up there now. We negotiated a late checkout (standard is 11:00 a.m. / we need to be out by 2 p.m.) So

Rick you right ....chasing APEs is fun .... if it was easy it wouldn't be fun ....a challenge makes the reward even sweeter ! I believe I am done for today as i have worked Bob and Stan on 20 30 40

What's the schedule for tomorrow? Made a run to Frisco with plans on getting home earlier. Then Hwy 380 was backed up for miles. Threw in the towel and decided to stop in Denton to eat. Getting ready

Just got Bob on 30 meters! So I've got 3 so far today. I should have gone to my own POTA park today, but I'm going to do that tomorrow, and hopefully get a park to park with the guys (and parks

Based on my experience hunting these APEs they are usually attracted to a strong signal but have been know to go after a marginal signal .....hi hi JEFF WALSH W3WMU #1673 BUBBAWOOD WORLDWIDE

Steve ..APE sightings so far this year have been minimal .... they have been very elusive .... almost like the real Bigfoot..... but perseverance usually pays off ..... good luck and happy hunting

I haven't seen either of them on any band above 30m. Steve W3HF
