After drooling over reports from the top half for the past couple of days,
we in the bottom half finally had a piece of the action this morning. I
arrived in the shack at 0420 local, and could see I had already missed part
of the opening. It seems that a sharp positive delta in the A- index is
what it takes this time of the year.
The opening was mainly to the right coast. Sri to the left coast, I forgot
to give you a special QRZ. Was there anyone calling from out west whom I
didn't hear?
It started off with W1WAS (oops, sri David, I mean W1WAI !) (I messed his
call up 3 months ago) and finished with Jack, VE1ZZ, 10 calls later. I
really love this band. It frustrates to hell for weeks, and then suddenly
comes up with the goods.
Greetings to all.
Greg, ZS5K
