a load of QSOs today, including 2 US stations, and a repeat contact with Russian RA3PA.

spotted a quirk with QRZ.  if the station isn't registered, then the address obviously isn't in the database.  yet there's still a distance given..... I ASSUME that this is the middle of the country?  dunno, but the stations working from outside their own country with another national prefix still get a distance on QRZ.......

anyway, several times over the last few days I've heard KB2UZY calling CQ and handling pileups.  I'v tried but not got through.  today, I had my CQ answered by a KB station and fed the call into QRZ and lo and behold a bunch of photos that look very familiar!!  Nice one!!
