2017-02-26 Thread Nicholas Hall-Patch
A bit more "normal" morning, with stronger big guns in the 1300-1400UT period, but lots of carriers still and some weak audios. Nothing too outstanding at sunrise, but several stations produced audio one to two hours after local sunrise, in a couple of cases, their best audio of the morning. p
