Topband: JA paths this morning

[john.w1fv@telocity.com (John Kaufmann)]

Speaking of skewing, there was some interesting
propagation to JA just before local sunrise this
morning.  JA1HQT (569) and JA0MVW (449) were both short
path to the northwest.  However, JA8ISU (559-569), who
is in northern Japan, had distinct multipath echo,
unlike the others, and was peaking from the west.  ISU
gradually shifted to northwest as local sunrise
approached here.  

This month we've had several mornings with JA's coming
through.  It hasn't been this good to JA for at least 3
years.
