OK, I'd like an explanation why Kevin was 599 here today on 20m, and 
very loud the last few weeks, and before, I almost never actually heard 
him and depended on Tom for a QNI.  This afternoon, Kevin was pushing 
S9+ with my beam at 070 towards Tom, Kevin is sort of due north of me, 
maybe 600 - 650 miles.

SFI=65 [about as low as it can get]; A=8; K=2.  What is going on?

73,
