Sounded like they were going at it pretty well from this QTH, Petr.
They probably had the same problem as I did - QRM level so high in Eu
that nobody hears any DX at all. I called several Eu stations and to a
man they just CQ'd right through me! If Eu observed the DX window like
in the US, they might have better luck!
How about this for a suggestion - While it's dark in the US, US stations
stay out of the segment 1830-1835, and when it's dusk in Eu (still broad
daylight in the US), Eu stations stay out. Then one or two of us on the
far side of the planet could go in there and call CQ with a chance of
being heard.
