*I heard a lot of echoes this time, some stations was very difficult to
understand becasue the echoes, D4C, CW5R and many others, I must to point
with my antenna 90 degrees off the signal path to undestand something, it
was incredible, but I'm low powered, I didn't hear my own signal..... *

*I noticed also that I heard some stations pointing 90 degress off the
signal path better than the right azimut.... Propagation was great.....!!!!*
