Worked S01WS on 6 meters dxcc #209

I have been quite busy lately and I had no time to update my blog last two weeks. No big sporadic E openings yet here up to now but I was able to work S01WS on May 23rd for my #209 dxcc and #207 current. They had a good signal on 50.130 ssb, where most times they are, peaking s9 for a long time.

S01WS is not an expedition, they are living there and they will be quite often qrv on 6 meters. For now they have 40 w and a dipole, as the yagi antenna has high swr. His rig has some problems too. Furthermore, they have high qrm and qrn from sand storms (I didn't know that was causing noise) so some times it's difficult for them to hear callers.
