Both days of the contest the early path to JA was skewed SW to
JA. The normal NW path was open only near sunrise on Saturday
morning (quite good) and not open at all on Sunday.
Of course it was the same skew on transmit (it always is).
It pays to check other directions. During the summer LA3XI was
consistently E and SE from here, every time I worked him.
