Topband: Down Under Diary 8 Feb 2001

[Steve Ireland]

G'day all

Some propagation from VK6 into northern Euope at around 2130Z, with
contacts with OH2PJ (56/79) and Gus SM3BCS.  Ross 9M2AX was QRV on 1831 at
this time.

No sign of S9LA or the 5U operation on 160m.  However, 5U4R was a solid S7
on 3799 SSB working JAs.  My feeling is that with the poor 160m conditions
this season, the band is getting less attention than usual - which
unfortunately makes sense.

Vy 73,

Steve, VK6VZ
