     Good somebofy did bring this up. At first I couldn´t beleive
     what was going on and had to call a coupple of friends to
     check if they did see the same, it was abslutley dreadful.
     I tried to tell a few but ofcourse nobody wanted to take
     notice. Many many big prominent stations did sound just
     awful with big distortion and ecessive bandwith, if you
     like I could name a bunch of callsigns but I don´t think
     those guys read this reflector, maybe the contest one.

It was OK over here in the UK, but I was only on 10m. Signals from the 
USA
were generally clean, but so many of them it was hard to find anywhere 
to
operate. Signals from the East of my location were such a problem I 
could
not operate until the afternoon. It is a pity there was no activity from
Alaska or I would have managed WAS over the weekend.
