I forgot to mention, I'm located in Iowa.  Antenna is a 4 square (lazy V
config).

I was delighted to get them worked here while they were QRV.  They were
pretty weak however.

They where very good yesterday evening in Europe at 3.504. I started to copy
them 10 minutes before my sunset and the signal just kept building here,
finishing at a solid S - 7.

Incidently it was my first DX QSO for a long time on 80 M as my new tower is
up. Im using a sloping dipole supported at 100 ft. with an average angle
against the tower of 30 - 40 degrees. Its a very easy and quick way to get
on the air without first having to think about radials.

Not for this reflector but thought I mention it anyway:
At the same time VK9ML were intermiddent audible in OZ land and I believe
workable in Eastern Europe on 1.826.
