Out here on the West coast of Canada the conditions the last couple weeks have been outstanding ! Some of the best I've ever experienced in almost 40 years on 11 meters. Had contact in the last few days with Greenland, Serbia, Poland, and the Marquesas Islands among other exotic places. All heard on 555 and then QSY'd elsewhere for contact. And all worked with a barefoot Kenwood TS-140S at 120 watts and either my Antron 99 or a 54 foot wire dipole through an antenna tuner. I am surrounded on all four sides by dense fir forest so have very limited room for antennas.....
