Roger,
I haven't been able to be on much the last
few days but I did get on for a bit, both
nights. It was for me, in Connecticut,
just across the pond, extremely quiet,
almost un-naturally so.
I thought I had something affecting my
radio or antennas, maybe the attenuator on
with no visual indicator of being active.
But no, F, G & DL were definitely in there
& some were peaking at S7.
Friday night I was barefoot and worked
DF2PY, his signals were Q5 throughout and
though he had a bit of a challenge getting
my call at first, we made the QSO just
fine. That was at 05:03Z.
All considering, the band was pretty nice
on this end the last two days.
73,
Gary
