[bars] I love 30m!

Holey Moley!  I have a new favorite band!

Taking advantage of the unseasonably warm weather I strung up a 30m 
inverted V with the hopes of working FT8WW on Crozet Island (they are 
only operating on 20 & 30m at present).  I fired up my trusty TS-2000 
and hoped for the best...

In the first 24hrs I worked 26 states and one ATNO (Reunion Island).  On 
the second day I worked 10 more states, Australia, several Japanese 
staions and another ATNO (Hong Kong).  And, drum roll please....  Yup, 
FT8WW!  All, FT8 BTW.  The waterfall looks like 20m on a contest weekend!

Now, fingers crossed that I show up in the official log and not as a 
victim of a slime ball pirate.

73 and may the DX be with you!
