He was audible for about 10 minutes, mostly at > s9 signal strength. He worked 2 other JO73 locals. Seemed very localized. Anyway, good catch! ;-) |

UW8SM big signal but others in IO81 to the south-west of me had smaller signals, once again the opening was very localised. With this and other 2m Es inc TA1D on 8th July, 2015 has been one of the very best 2m Es seasons for me, after 2014 which was so poor. 73 - Darrell G0HVQ |

Combined with my bad takeoff to East direction, that resulted in a frustrating experience: 4 stns heard, no QSO :-( 73 de Massimo |
