16. July 2016
At 06.59 UTC 9A2SB reported reception of the OD5KU beacon. Shortly after that the band opened. Reflectionpoint is located over southern Bulgaria / northern Greece. OD5PY showed up giving several people a new and pretty rare DXCC.
Later that day there was an opening between F and EA8 however it seemed that F8GGD was the only one receiving signals from the Canarian Islands. |

I guess excellent tropo duct on east Meditarranean has helped a lot today, to reach Middle East stns. 73 es DX, Massimo |
