Hi Bill,

We probably know just enough to be dangerous. I often refer to "the
propagation fairies" - like the tooth fairy, etc. It's partly mystery.
That's why all of us have QSOs that should be impossible ( a gift from
the propagation fairies) or fail to make QSOs that should be easy
(tricks played by those same fairies). One attraction of ham radio is
the bundle of surprises we get when we turn on the radios. As Tim The
Toolman says - "OY!?"

73,
