I'm an old ham but relatively new to top band. Last night from here was
amazing. I heard lots of EUs and managed to work S58N for my first EU on top
band. It's super tough from AZ to get by you guys in the midwest and east
coast, even on higher bands, with modest equipment. (Inverted-vee, 45' at apex,
6' at ends and 500W.) Even without a dedicated RX antenna I apparently hear
much better than I get out.

Superb conditions to EU from IL last night as well. Definitely the best
top band conditions I've experienced.

Conditions to EU were better than I have seen so far this season I was only
on from 0430-0500z, but even that was impressive.
Tom 4O/KC0W was very loud. In fact, he was louder than he is at our sunset
peak.
