Jon, I'm usually using diversity reception here with a top loaded 
vertical and a Hi-Z 4-square.  I have also noticed that lately the sigs 
are louder on the vertical, but it seems to vary from night to night.  
Conditions in general have been the best of the season during the past 
week or 10 days here.

Thanks for the tip on the Asia openings.  I'm going to have to exercise 
some discipline and not just rely on my prostate to get me up at 1000Z.:-)

73, Joe
