Yesterday, I was picking up California, Arizona, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Georgia. A very interesting combination. Yesterday and today, the band would open up and then the floor would drop out 20 minutes later.

This Morning Before Dad and I left for church, I was able to make contact with Georgia and for a few seconds only,St.Thomas Virgin Island's, Conditions were a little Shaky,but still workable, just had to be Patient,hope everyone has a Blessed upcoming Memorial Day,May we all take time to remember the Heroes that gave there lives for there Country and the Friends that they served with,so that we might all be thankful and appreciative of the God given Freedoms that we all have,God Bless you all my Friend's!!
Past few days haven’t been good. Faint voice pops in now and then.
Within the last hour it has really been hopping. Just after 1:00P.M., I made contact with 285 in Hickory, NC; 455 in Greer, SC; 426 south of Lexington, KY; 813 50 miles south of Augusta, GA and 739 in east Tennessee. Not bad for a barefoot Uniden PC122 and A99. At this pace, I'd cover the whole country by dinner time - propagation permitting.
I'd say the skip is rolling on 11 meters today.

404 it was good to hear from another wwdx member!
After making it home from church this afternoon, powered on the radios and absolutely nothing..... Monitoring SSb with one and scanning the regular 40 with another... Not a single voice.
Today was not a Dx day here
Today was not a Dx day here
I've been hearing DX all day from Northern California, Oregon, and Washington. Talking, not so much.
That's great news for you, glad some of you fellas still have favorable conditions.
Not so much here though
I've been hearing chatter while traveling in my car the last couple days but don't seem to reach out and touch someone.
The Pacific was open really nice last night. Made several contacts in Australia New Zealand and Bora Bora. It died out about 10:30 pm est. Went to 20 meters worked a guy south of Moscow on 90 watts and a wire. Pretty cool lol.
I was picking up skip from Eastern Europe last night on Channel 16 LSB. It was in Russian of course. I translated back to English and it is reading, "I do not have any panties on...." No disrespect intended. Here's hoping everyone got to be with his/her family and celebrate the lives of those servicemen who can not longer be with us.

105 located 35 miles SE of Phoenix, AZ: that's a pretty good bike ride from here!
Dx really banging in from the south this morning. Had my first good comebacks from the southern tip of Florida and Georgia and was able to get adjustments made on my 2000GTL and check out my old GE Super Base. I guess the old time radios won out again !!! LOL Guess I now have to add my New Galaxy DX 2547 to the pile. It reached out and touched Michigan and the South. Now I have to get them set up on a switch to get a comparison and see which one climbs to the top of the heap. LOL
