> 
> Just missed the first part, since I had something...better (hi)
> to do (was in Turin with family to visit the Holy Shorud)
> so started at 19.45Z on saturday.
> 
> The 10M band was dead to my qth (Milano) just 2 (two) qso ..I believe..
> The 15M was so and so, with some loud signal very few) and a lot 
> just above the noise.
> The 20M were OK on sunday, but early in the morning signals were
> full of echoes, or a sort of backscatter, that made them difficult
> to copy even they were loud.
> The 40 & 80 have been good.
> 
> The curiosities now.........
> 
> FIRST ONE:
> 1951Z, 20M, among loud signals, there is an S3 one: OH9W.
> gave him a lot of call, no answer (yes I'm only 100W, ...but)
> he works stations I can't hear....hhhmmmm
> freq: 14034.5....would it be an harmonics???
> switch to 40, to check, since it's time to go there.
> freq 7017.2. OH9W is there, very loud. qso at first call!!
> 
> 
> SECOND ONE:
> 2017Z on 40M, the same story, heard a clear signal, well
> readable above the qrm, OH0Z.
> try to call him, but no answer and again do not hear the other stns.
> this is again an harmonics.
> Switch to 80 and OH0Z is there, at exactly the frequency/2.
> 
> Well, the propagation to southern EU was really good, but....
> 
> 
> At 1015Z 20M:  OH2U   599+60db or even more, but my S-meter
> doesn't go beyond this point!!!
> This for sure the strongest signal I heard during my SAC.
> (BTW when I worked OH2U on 20M at 0631Z, he was loud normally, 
>  with those echoes I mentioned before.)
> 
>
