hello reflectees !
i observed very interesting sounding signals Tonite A was 50 and the K was 5 at 
that time.The only stateside sig that was readable was K9DX.Few others called 
but i had flutter and echo on all of them and everything sounded chopped and 
even garbled.Signalstrength was sufficient on most sigs but the intelligibility 
was severely reduced.I observed as well about 6 db more white noise on the 
western direction than on the northwestern path.But readability was not better 
on the western direction,due to the above effects.Anybody heard the same on 
transatlantic signals ? i hope the sun goes back to sleep real soon.
