If you monitor the PSK31 propagation beacons on 28120 kc you will find 10
meters open in some direction via Es or F2 virtually every day that there is no
geomagnetic storming.

Just heard Ross VK4CQ on 28.480 at 08:35UTC on 20/10.
He peaked at 56 before vanishing back into the noise. It looks like a case
of skip focussing to me as he was in his twilight zone. Strange thing is at
that time of the morning it could be long or short path. Beaming SW brought
the signals up at one point, but shortly after beaming NE was better -
strange!
I would have put my money on SP. Shortly after he vanished I could still
hear UK stations to the west of me working him.
Propagation is excellent at the moment. I have heard the West Coast USA on
17m and California was worked on 80m the other day from the UK in the
morning (not by me I hasten to add!).
