Comments:
A glance at Geoclock reveals a near-total lack of darkness overlap between W6
and the entire Eurasian landmass at this time of year. Only a masochist would
expect much from a night-time band like 40m, especially with the weekend's
expanded auroral oval, but I wanted to try my two 'NL Moxon Yagi antennas.
Nothing much before sunset and no EU the first evening, but the band hung on
surprisingly late to Asia and Oceania after sunrise. With only a few daylight
exceptions, I worked whatever I could hear and enjoyed the contest, and the
antennas are far enough apart to allow S&P on B while transmitting on A, though
a little hard on the transceiver attenuators. (2)x TS-950/Alpha 87/2el Moxon
Yagi/Logikeyer with PTT/Dell GX-50 with CT 9.92
