Listened today between 12:35 and 13:55 after an early morning phone call. Conditions were good, no doubt, but not quite on par with yesterday's incredible performance. There was a modest DU post-dawn appearance, but not on the scale of the 8th. For example, no Rhema on 540 today. The Asians were strong, as were the RR LW stations (but not heard on MW). As always, a "6" unless otherwise stated:
