I was copying K6NR for about 15 mins in heavy QSB around 0600 but he could not hear me.
I also heard AA7JV/MM very briefly at about the same time.
Some very strong signals from E Coast but almost no VE audible here.

Hi

My evening - 90 QSOs with Europe

My night - 3 QSOs with Europe

My morning - 4 QSO NA, 1 QSO - SA, 1 QSO - EU...

he loudest DX was the NP2X

I have all the sound recordings.

It's early spring here in the south of Ukraine. Season 160 is almost

over for me. And, of course, I hope to live to see the next one.

Phil, VK6GX, showed up in the Spring Stew Perry and made 18 QSOs with USA stations across the country.  A few of his QSOs were with low power stations which resulted in some pretty big QSO point contributions to his
score:

KG9X is a low power station - worth 70 points!
K9MMS is a low power station - worth 70 points!
N0NI is a low power station - worth 68 points!
AI6O is a low power station - worth 70 points!hole country.

I was able to pull JH7UJU's QRP signal which resulted in this:

JH7UJU is a QRP station - worth 64 points!

You can see for yourself how LP and QRP stations affected your score by checking out the preliminary results - which is updated several times a day as more logs show up.

Phil called me on Sunday morning (local) just a bit after my SR. I kept getting "6GX" and then got the "V." There was just too much QRN and QSB for my little RX antenna to pull it through. Sorry Phil!!
I was running 100 Watts to an Inv-L.
