Hi Robin

JA codx stunk here in Georgia, I worked only three JA's today. They were
about five to ten dB weaker than normal with no sunrise peak, and deep QSB.

The path was more north than normal, usually they null out somewhere from due
west to northwest, today I they nulled out from northwest to slightly east of
north.

This poor opening lasted from 11 to 12:45 Z.
