Indeed ,conditions were not good. But KL7RA suddenly appeared at my sunrise
and I logged KG7CW from ID for a new state 15 minutes later. (only SD
needed) TB is always a challenge :) 73 Pat ON7PQ .

Dear OMs and YLs,
Just because you make many Qs within NA on your own continent does not
make conditions good. For the vast majority of people reporting to 3830
Friday night's conditions following a solar storm were "Stinko" with poor
propagation between EU and NA. Saturday night was considerably improved
but not wonderful. You can hear plenty of good AM stations in the daytime
but not much DX - the absorption is too high. My understanding is though
that at least electrical storm noise was minimum in NA for the weekend.
