After breakfast at Lewis’ with 8 great Ft. Smith hams, I checked out 6 and as Dennis T. noted, I called CQ and got a few responses in the Midwest but I have yet to have EU print out this season and the season is almost OVER!  Question for you 6 M fans:  It seems to me that last year and the year before were greater for DX.  Granted, it is mostly FT8, but I had numerous EU stations and a JA opening or two last year and the year before.  So….is the band not quite as good as the past two years, or is EM25 just not participating in those good “clouds”?

 

TKS for your thoughts in advance.

 

 

Vy 73 es be safe over the holiday!

Nothing copied in EM55BD.  Normal for this season.  Have not worked a single EU this summer.

Yes, barefoot!!

 

However, the definition of “barefoot” is like beauty. It’s in the eyes of the beholder!!  😊

Europe never did decode for me.  Joel must be using his phased 6M yagi's.  He's 7.6 miles from me and instead of his normal +30, he's -24: same heading as Europe from here.

Headed to NCAARS breakfast.

73, Lanny
