Got to talk to Sylvia on Corsica Island for a few minutes this morning and also heard one other station from Italy.
It's good to be hearing them this early in the year for me.

Yep Larry, it is just the beginning of the last part of this solar cycle.
I got Giancarlo/1SD227/Northern Italy on ch 38LSB just about one hour ago on a stock CB radio and the 4 element Sirio beam from San Jose CA.
For those reading this and are new to DX and radio, from now until the end of October - and so long as there is enough solar activity/sunspots - long distance communications will be a likelihood. That is; if you try . . .

I'd say you have from October til about March. This has been a very weak cycle overall, but you have one more winter to get your dx on.
Ya - have to agree, I've read the same thing.
Robb,
I also talked with Giancarlo on 38 lsb, it was about 1/2 hour after you ......... extremely loud, his 1 kw was working very well today.
