Hello radio!!  Wow, the European beverage does still work.  It had been a
very long time since I really heard Europe coming in well.

Found RA4LW with a super signal at 0400Z and he came right back.  He also
worked New Mexico.  I heard several UA3 stations on the band (didn't get 
any of them in the log, and then noticed the SMs and OHs were pretty loud.

It felt like it was October as I put more Europeans in the log than I have 
worked in November, December and January all put together (over 30 of them).
I worked SMs, OHs, two EA6s, some Is, HB9, OE, SP, DL, GW and G (from memory,
probably forgot a few).  I also worked the YW0.  

It will be interesting to see if these conditions continue.  A European 
opening during the ARRL DX contest would be very sweet!

This morning, heard the ZK3 and FK8.  The FK8 was about 569, but seemed
to have problems hearing the stations calling and went to 75 SSB after
awhile.
