This morning - the band was in excellent shape from the Pacific Northwest to Europe. I knew things were going to be good when the first signal I heard on the band was from RC3FL and he was 579 at 1337 UTC (a little over two hours before my sunrise). During the next two hours, I was able to put

Hi all. Until a few nights ago - I still hadn't worked any Europoeans this season. That changed on Wednesday night when I got 4 Europeans in the log. I would have had another one on Thursday night - but my TX antenna had developed a water short in the control cable and was beaming south when I
