Started on 80M at 2306Z when I worked SM3EVR.
From 2306z-0150Z, all 80m, worked 11 Europeans.
Called CQ on 160M at 0145Z or so, worked 1 USA station.
Dinner was from 0150-0350z.
80M again, from 0350-0444 worked 19 Europeans.
Had advertised I would be on 160M at 0445Z, so I switched there.
0448-0610Z worked 12 Europeans.
0610-0655 now back on 80M worked another 27 Europeans.
Local midnight is 0300Z.

Dennis - it would be interesting to know when your qsos occurred in relation to
your local midnight or the midpoint midnight and to the greylines.

I recently operated as CX/W1UE, from Uruguay. I had difficulty hearing
stations on most nights,
but the night from 2200Z Thursday Dec 10 to 0600Z Friday Dec 11, I had no
trouble hearing
stations on either 160 or 80M. I worked more stations in that 8 hour time
period that I did in
20 hours spread over 2 weeks. I keep coming back to the same question- why?
I have never operated from CX before, I have nothing to evaluate the 2 weeks
against.
Did that night have exceptional low band propagation?
For that one night, I had no problems hearing anyone, it seemed. I worked as
far east as UA9
in Z18 on 80M, and a dozen Europeans on 160M. Stations that I never heard
before or after
that night. I'm trying to figure out how I heard so well on that night, but
not on the other 10 nights
where I also tried to make 80/160M QSOs. I can't explain it.
Dennis CX/W1UE now just W1UE.
