I was QRV for a short time last night and started CQing around 0340z and worked seven EU stations in about 30 minutes. Conditions were average it seemed. With warmer atmospheric temps we're starting to see the usual springtime QRN here in the Midwest. It's not severe yet but getting underway. With lightning season approaching I will be decommissioning some of the 160m antenna systems after the VU4 op. 73. . . Dave, W0FLS

Well I came on for a few hours last night . . .

Conditions were good, as my RBN reports with NA sites were between 20 and 35
dB over the noise.

But I only worked a handful of NA stations !  (there were several other
European and Russian stations on too)

It's a real shame there's so little CW activity . . . this Season will be
over soon !
