Doug,

Forgive me for speculating, but it could be interesting to keep your beam 
Northwards between now and say July 5. When I lived in VE2 land the VE8 6m 
beacon then in the NWT, which only ran a few watts during its early years, 
often came romping in with a T9 flutter signal (probably "Auroral Es"), and 
July 1 evening EST always seemed to be the magic date. By "romping" I mean a 
true S9+, at times almost pegging the meter.

Good luck with your experiment.

73,
Geoff
