Reflectors:

This is the report I sent in to the HAARP experiment tonight regarding 
the 40m EME.


Copied the HAARP array direct on 6792.5 and 7407.5.  Signal was about S6 
on the 6.7 Mhz freq, and around S1 on the 7.4 Mhz freq.  Could not copy 
the EME bounce.

Rig is Icom IC-706 MK II G, without antenna tuner.  Narrow 500 Hz filter 
used.
Antenna was random wire antenna, about 35 feet up 12 feet -- in a random 
pattern.
DSP Noise filter is the Clearspeech filter.


Will try again tomorrow night.


Bev,AH6NF tried also, and got the direct signal, but no EME bounce.  I 
could hear HAARP direct on 22 inches of metal!

KH6CW in Kona reports via the DX Cluster S9 signal direct, S7 EME bounce.
