Interesting observations -- Saturday evening here in NNJ with a modest
station and full Flag antenna to the NE, in an optimum position with optimum
installation details, the band sounded like 20 meters on a good night.
However
last night the EU sigs were riding just above the noise floor - far weaker
than
than Saturday evening yet there were many posts around me and reports seemed
quite healthy (altho some 160 meter RST reports I have little credibilty
in). And I have seen these more than I'd like - with stations all around me
reporting big sigs and I can barely, if at all, hear the stations.. The only
thing I can figure is TOA.
