Well, the last hour on fifteen meters SSB has been quite interesting.

About an hour ago, a male voice fired up simplex at 21.222 identifying as
P5/3Z9DX. He was ESP copy here in W6 and I cant be sure if it was Dom-3Z9DX
or not. I have talked to Dom on Skype and he has a distinctive voice. The
voice on the radio was just so weak that I could not tell if it was really
Dom.

It was sunrise in P5 when he started and many of the big guns in W6 were
calling him. Some of those were #1 Honor Roll guys meaning they didnt need
P5 for DXCC but I know that many of them chase CQ Marathon and other awards.

Its 0115 UTC and the P5/3Z9DX is still operating. The sun has set and our
propagation is about gone. From what I see on DX Summit he is now working
JA stations.

It will be interesting to learn if this was really P5/3Z9DX or a slim. Im
really hoping that it was Dom-3Z9DX and that he was able to get permission
and get on the air from the DPRK. Lets hope!

Update: http://www.DX-World.net is reporting that its really P5/3Z9DX!
