Thanks info.  I couldn't hear ZD7 earlier and didn't stay up for their
sunrise.  May try that if he is on again. Kind of surprised he didn't have
better signal.  Other signals from that part of the world like 9G2HO and
5T5PA have been good

What direction did the VK9 peak? Wasn't sure if he was on skewed path

Yes, there were some really good Euro signals last night.  YL2SM was
especially loud here

I forgot to add that, while ZD7W was very weak on 160 meters last night the
prop to EU was fabulous. Very very good.
