Topband: Out the back door propagation.

[K1FZ-Bruce]

I'm in mid-coast Maine..... W1AW is in Newington CT.  On a good low angle night I can see over 20DB front to back on their signals.. 
 
To night I see 6db at best. This  can be from aurora,.......  or when 10 meters is"hopping" with signals.... most of them North-South,
160 meters is not so good.  (or Maybe an opening to CE, LY, PY.........     For me at least, tomorrow at sunrise is a good morning to sleep in. hi
