Last night's 6M opening from here was short
and signals were laced with Au ripping.

The opening started in EM and EN for about
an hour, faded away and peaked again about
45 minutes later in my usual 6M region of DN
and DM.

6M has really been less of a performed this year than
ever.

I have observed during the last couple of high K
during magnetic storming on 2M some beacons
jumping out of the noise. But again, with much
distorted signals because of  Au conditions.

Also last night, in the noise on 160M VA2RAC was calling
CQ. Local atmosphere QRN was big making copy
under 30% of the time. This was about 30 minutes after
my sunset.

As I write, 20M has just opened to Europe.

Anybody deploy a WPSR beacon at their station?

73, Gord
