Comments:

The 1900Z session was a self-inflicted disaster. 
I checked conditions on the various bands a minute 
before the start by bypassing the MT-3000A tuner on 
the vertical (one length for all bands). I forgot
it in that position, so SWR was more than 5 : 1 
on 7 MHz, which I noticed during the QSO with Rudy 
UR5MM at 1911Z. But with the proper settings my   
CQ was not paying off, so I changed to 14 MHz. 

After a while I noticed many strong S/P's on 14, 
so I tried my CQ-luck also there, but with a poor  
response. The Western sector including the U.K. 
was almost completely blocked out (also at 1300Z). 

Finally I tried 3.5 MHz on low PWR during the last 
minutes, and signals were great and well received 
on the other end mostly upon first call. 

Tonight on 7 MHz the fading was somewhat awkward
and fast with very deep nulls already during the 
1700Z Minitest40. Geo-magnetics have been quiet. 

Cheers/73, Zaba OH1ZAA #1856
