Sorry Kenny . . . no I didn't. In fact I've had a couple of emails from
others who called me, and I couldn't copy them either!
It was very wet over here, so I did have some 400kV power line noise, which
didn't help . . . but signals weren't that strong, or else I probably would
have heard you all
Well I came on last night, and my RBN reports were really good . . .
However, I didn't hear ANY North American stations at all !
Maybe propagation was one-way? (as sometimes happens on this band)

Many poor operators in Europe do not respect an area CQ, especially on CW.
On SSB Many poor operators in Europe wont even respect a DX station when he
calls for a specific prefix or suffix, why would they respect an area CQ ?

What's wrong with calling CQ [AREA]?
e.g.
CQ DX
CQ NA
CQ SA
CQ ...
And if you get called by a EU, just ignore it.

I wouldn't say conditions were GOOD last night, as the NA big guns are
normally several S units stronger over here, but they were OK.
I didn't get home from work til 0330Z last night (doing extra gigs for a
couple of weeks)
But I came on for just over an hour and managed to work 35 NA stations,

This snapshot of RBN spots over the last 36 hours is a little
disappointing.
Is there really an international contest on?

Shucks Pete, that’s propagation for you. I snared 37 DXC in last nights session
from here in Nova Scotia with my K2AV FCP and SAL-20 or new SGA, (Shared Ground
Array) beta version from Mark. Running just 600 watts. Many, many, did I say
many? US stations could not hear the EU DX and plopped on
Hi Peter
Signals from Europe were not strong but I worked over 50 counties on the
first night. Few days ago Eddy XV1X signal was very good "long path" really
SSW-SSW, CW solid 559, and just yesterday morning several station on the
east coast worked XV1X on FT8. JT1CO is active, BY, HL JA's, 3W1T.

Hi
Someone forbade the East of the USA to be at 160 m .. :-))
But the reason is probably in special conditions.
I check my RX if everything is ok ..
But everything is fine with her.
But the signals of many stations are very weak. Huge QSB.
My QSOs this night:
N0FW, K9BGL, N1UR, NI0G, XE2X
Yes, as per DL8LAS's post, DX conditions continue to be good . . .
Shame there aren't more NA stations on !

Well I was hoping to have some SSB DX contacts on 160m, but conditions were
really poor from this side over the weekend . . .
Only managed to hear & work a couple of NA stations.
Even most Europeans weren't very strong at all

Very good over the pole real ham radio (cw) conditions from Northern Europe

strongest were LY7M, YL2SM and LA1MFA.
