George,
It has been strange for sure. I got them an hour ago on 40m, they came up
out of the noise for about 20 minutes and then were gone. Of course that is
just when the amplifier says that it has too high SWR, so I have to retune
and by then they were fading.
My SSB contact and second rtty contact still have not shown up in the
on-line log - but I had 8 qso records for the 1st rtty contact so I guess I
at least have a new rtty country.
Happy hunting.

Randy and All,
Congratulations Earl. And thanks Randy for confirming what I am (not)
hearing here. I see all the spots, listen on the bands and don't hear
anything on 15m, 12m, 10m etc. I was making plans for new coax runs and
removing my antenna for maintenance thinking there was a serious
problem. I can't hear ZS8MI in the comedy hour 14245 "net" either.
Phil, GU0SUP, had some sort of sacrificial ritual he believes will improve
propagation and maybe that is the most likely solution. A solar flux of
88 sure doesn't make signals appear in the noise.
But we have a couple more days... and I read they have K2 and Acom 1000
amps so maybe that and crossed fingers will make the needed magic.
Good luck to all,
George .. W1ZT
