Recently the geomagnetic field has been very unstable, hence a higher
K-index and a lot of aurora, resulting in totally wiped out DX
conditions on 160m up here.
None of the regular NA stations could be heard this week.
Then again, conditions were phenomenal during the Stew so let's hope
for a re-occurrence of that for the upcoming CQ 160 :-)

Well sadly conditions were rather poor last night . . .
Also I wasn't sure how many stations made it on the band, as I had
torrential rain all night, and with the 400kV power lines a mile away that
caused a high noise level, so could only copy stations above S7.
Oh well . . . perhaps it will be better next Wednesday !
