[VHFcontesting] big winter 6M Es opening Nov 23 - 24

[John Geiger]

We had a nice opening to California from EM04 in Oklahoma last night around 0200Z.  Worked DM03, DM04, DM14, and DM15.  You have to love this off season Es.  Signals were quite strong at times, but there was also alot of QSB on them.
