Topband: condx

[n0ah.ham Paul Veal]

With the MA160V, TS590S, 100 watts and and the K9AY single loop, worked S51V, G3XGC and G3OLB from our backyard lot.....
 
Tonight was fb- G3OLB was moving the meter between 3-5 for a few minutes with the noise floor at near zero, a bit surreal...all between 05:15-05:40z 28 Dec 2011. Was very good copy on EU, then, heard several east coast stations still working EU after this time but didn't copy any more at this QTH after this window of time-
