Last nite (Oct 9th) seemed excellent condx to EU. Worked several stations and
even a couple with just 100W. this morning the OC contest was going so more
activity than usual. Worked 8 VK and 1 KH6. More in one morning than any other
time. In fact, more in one morning than in many years!
Since building a W8JI/ W5ZN 8 antenna circle array I've played on 160 through
our summer (really helps if you can hear stuff!!) and its been very fun. In our
mornings quite common to hear a couple VK and even ZL. On a couple mornings
have even worked JA. Now that its getting later in the year I'm seeing/ hearing
a few more US stations on both in our mornings and evenings so I'd expect
activity to continue to increase.
