hi reflectees !
Cndx around the ARRL test were good on topband.
But today the Caribean was stompin`in. YV1DIG was way over S9 in EU. Jeff - 
PJ4/KU8E - broke in with a solid S9 after that and TO5D not much less.Too bad 
that J6 and 8R made no appearance- guess they needed some shuteye after the 
contest.
Allover activity from the US was kinda low, understandably, but a few western 
diehards like N7JW,W6RJ,N6CT and WB6RSE took advantage of the cndx.EU noise was 
about 6 to 8 db worse than usual and i believe the noise was propagated as well 
as the signals, bcuz N7JW was complaining about QRN as well.
Bottom line is : these days the last 20 min b4 sunrise yield the farthest 
shots, which is not true all the time.
good DXing everyone    de wolf  -df2py-
