Was watching bands all day, as 70MHz was wide open to G and LX. My first Es for 2008. And even sweeter with only 50watts. Keep listening towards IO61. |

After at 19:40, I found the OZ7IGY/B and go calling. All ES sign was very QSB and not so strong but shorted to 900km! Also some FAI to 70° at the same time. 73's to all |

Seems 2m-ES for hours isnt' possible anymore in HB9 :-( So let's enjoy the perseids instead :-) Good reflections! Chris, HB9DFG |
