Hi Don
Yes most of the other British DX-ers seem to come on around our Sunrise . .
. I stopped bothering a while ago, and come on in the middle of the night
instead.
Mainly because there's usually more stations to work . . . but also because
there rarely seems to be a Sunrise Peak these days (like there always used
to be)

Hi Roger,
I had a lot of fun early this morning working into Eu an hour before through
a little past their sunrise. A lot of QSB but pretty decent signals and I
even did a 2 way 100 watt QSO with F5PLC. Did have QRN from lightning off
SE coast of US. Definitely sunrise enhancement for a change.
Unfortunately hardly anyone around in the US at that time in the morning
answering the Eu stations calling CQ.
Also heard a JH station this morning at my Sunrise which other US stations
were working.
73,
Don (wd8dsb)

Well looking at RBN reports from across the pond, 160m DX propagation
continues to be rather poor . . .
There was heavy rain here last night, which gave me lot of power line noise,
so couldn't copy any weak signals - apologies if you were calling me (only
worked a couple of NA stations)
