I came up on air around my sunrise today 2000z and heard E71A, and an SV9
station (which I need) who was working EU stations that I could not hear. I
went back to bed.
Yesterday evening I worked several stations in USA and JA, but conditions were
really marginal, although I was hitting a couple of US west coast RBN quite
hard.
The tower project is almost complete with about 28 m up. I became impatient and
put a couple of top loading wires on it and a temporary L-match at the base so
I could try it out. The top loaded vertical I have been working with (22 m
high) has been removed as the new tower was detuning it. The dipole just does
not cut it for DX in current conditions.
I am hoping to work a bit of EU before that opportunity closes late this month.

Well after a few very poor days, it looks like DX Propagation on 160m has
now improved . . .
So hopefully we'll see some Activity tomorrow night !
