Ron. . .thanks for the report and encouraging words.  Seems like we are having snippets of good prop every now and then but not much in between.  I got on and began CQing  about 0440z and quickly worked DF2PY with moderately good signals then with OK1CF, LY7M, and OK1DT calling in, all with weak signals.  Sounds like I should have stayed around.  Let's hope for some better prop and activity to go with it.

73. . .Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays to all. . . Dave, W0FLS

Last night (12/21) I got on the band around 0730Z. I was amazed to find several 
very loud signals on the band. Over the next hour I worked 5 stations from 
England that looked, on the panadapter, like locals. COMPLETELY different prop 
than during the Stew Perry contest.



Additionally, worked ZL1AZ and ZL3AB. Wow, what great prop. I decided to grab 
some sleep so I could be up for our sunrise here in NC. So I didn't stay up for 
sunrise in VK. Should have since there was no prop this morning.



Very nice to hear such strong prop. Let's hope it continues.
