Thanks for the tip Andy. Here in Ohio I notice quite often when EU is coming through on 160 after our SS and until your SR, the next morning I rarely if ever hear VK or the Pacific. To the contrary, when I hear VK at our SR, I rarely hear EU post our SS. It seems What the left hand giveth, the right hand taketh away! :) >>>> Bob, I wholeheartedly concur. I have seen this played out many times over the years here in FM08. (And the same thing in DM06) Case in point this past weekend: Friday evening (local) condx were miserable until well into Eastern EU SR. All of a sudden all EU was open -- well, nothing from Scandinavia -- and I ended with 40 EU in the log. Perhaps this was self-fulfilling prophecy, but I knew better than to hold my breath waiting for local SR. You guessed it! Couldn't copy VK3IO, barely could tell ZM4T was transmitting; couldn't even copy KH6. Zero JAs, of course! I love your left hand / right hand analogy. 73, Jim - WS6X _________________ Searchable Archives: http://www.contesting.com/_topband - Topband Reflector
