It was truly amazing just 70 mi north of you here in east Mesa also, Larry.
They peaked here about 0152Z VERY strong, and were solid until they faded at
0200Z. Fellow CADXA member N7RT worked them at 0152. I called with no luck but
I
am fairly antenna limited compared to some of the guys.
No Beverages here but they were actually louder on my high angle inverted vee
than they were on sloper, which is normally a much better DX antenna. I have
noticed that a bunch of times but only at sunrise and sunset and not always.
