I had to be afraid last night. Very afraid, to CQ!
We had severe thunderstorms across much of the Southeast of the country, and
the sky was being lit up almost constantly by lightning, at about the time I
would normally be looking for NA and JA. So I shut down, disconnected, and went
to bed.

Kind of exciting though because I've never heard, let alone worked, any JA's on
160m.

Subject: Topband: 10/28 morning conditions
What an unusual morning of prop. Started
We had similar excellent conditions here to KL7 and Asia here this
morning. Mike/KL7QOW called in with a big signal. As soon as we
finished Glen/AL7JX called in. JAs worked included JO7NFR (new call
for 160), JA8EKM (all time new call sign), JA5DQH, JA0MVW, JA7BXS, plus
HL5IVL, and KH6ZM.
What an unusual morning of prop. Started, at 10:43Z with hearing Mike, KL7QOW,
with a huge signal. Then heard JA8EKM working Dave, W0FLS. Worked JA8 at 1052
with his signal still building. Then found, and worked, KH6ZM at 10:57. Big
signal from him too.
Went up the band and called CQ. Phil,
