Hi Brian,
The band was amazing to JA-land this morning in Ontario, just as you say...
Your observation was most interesting re. the skewed path --- on my
3-element triangular phased "L" array this morning, two directions that I
can direct my signal to are due north, and 45-degrees west of north. Anyway,
I called a "JR7" for a good 20 minutes with the array beaming due north,
with no joy...
I then re-directed my array to favour the north-west, & I got him on my
first call!
No comment as to whether or not this was reciprocal, because I was
listening on both occasions with my northern-favouring K9AY loop.
