Thanks for the DU-DXing report from your shower room, Colin. I'm happy that the modified E100 tracked down 612-Brisbane for you. 

Unfortunately propagation here in Puyallup was down the drain. A ghostly signal from 738-Tahiti around 1325 was all that showed up. With the vicarious DU-DX tracked down by you and Richard this morning, though, it wasn't a total washout.

Alas, peak listening is now happening when I am showering and shaving for 
another work day Monday - to Friday. 

For those with some memories - 54 years ago almost to the day!
