Yeah it's getting kinda of Old,the last time I made a decent DX contact was on 8/23,after that it seems like the Solar storm's picked up and washed out the DX propagation and Conditions,etc so to speak,or so it seems,I thought this Cycle would be as good as in the early 90s one that I remember,that cycle was really good as I remember correctly!!
possibly .you have valid point
Had some contacts yesterday on 38lsb. Had a nice clear QSO with 606 in upstate New York. Kinda cool cause the Rams are playing Buffalo at the moment!!!
I had 2 So Cal contacts today on 38 lsb. Glad to see conditions are slowly coming back for me.
The last two days skip has been awesome in the afternoon in San Diego area. Hearing people all over the place including Australia.
It was coming in real strong this morning on my way to work. Hit a Texas and Alabama station. Could have been others coming back to me but at times it was a jumbled mess. Lots of stations!!!
I heard several stations on LSB 38 last night from about 7:30P.M. to 8:30P.M. - including a few in California. 965 in Nebraska came booming through and made a solid contact, so we took the QSO to LSB 39. After a few minute, the floor dropped like a brick. It seems that this has been the pattern for a good part of this skip cycle.
Just made solid contact with 101 Southern Cal....heard a lot of other traffic that was just a wasp nest.
120 in Iowa and WR 0149 in New Mexico today. Same pattern as yesterday. Strong signal for a few minutes and then the floor dropped out. I could also hear stations in CA and a non-stop QSO out of Glendale, AZ - all coming in farily strong and steady.
just noise.turn on preamp n faint voices. conditions are not just rite yet. we got rest of our lives to listen n hope
In the mean time been trying to readjust the modulation on my 2 Galaxy DX 979s and did get a radio check from one of the local gas well drivers who give me the Loud & Clear so that perked me up. And I could tell he was a ways off but I was at a high point in my journey. I have to get car problems fixed before I journey to DTB radio to get my McKinley aligned and hopefully get one of my Dosy meters calibrated so I can get all 3 reading the same.
