Sorry about that Steve . . 

I heard a few people calling that I couldn't quite pull out of the noise -
there was a lot of QSB on signals.

Roger,
Last night you had a very solid signal (579) on qsb peaks but you could not
copy my calling.

Here at Ve6wz conditions were excellent last night into EU. I worked 46 EU,
some with exceptionally strong signals. Solar wind below 350 km/s still
seems to be a good proxy for trans-polar openings from these parts.

KW to shunt fed tower, and diversity RX with 9 circle array and 1000'
Beverage.

73, de Steve ve6wz
