Yes Lee, please do. Better insights of this sudden and selective propagation
mechanism might force DJ1YFK to withdraw his remark addressed to yours truly:
"Seems to happen to weak stations only :)"
The QRP LID seems to have forgotten his roots, now that he is playing in the
PowerHouse HotShot league ;o)
My heart bleeds, especially after all the work that has been done in the last year to
make the ON5ZO signals heard worldwide...
Cheers!
