QSL - yes I also noticed DXmaps went kaput for a while.
worked YV4NN, that's all as I hear Florida and midwest stations working Europe now. I have caught a few openings to Europe, and last year that opening where everything in Northern South America was landing here.
Let's see which way the clouds move - yes I heard you also calling the /MM station. I do know if all water grids count for VUCC, but I am only chasing for my own count.
Not as much fun as 6, but I may look for something to get on 432 MHz - just to have the experience of needing to aim antennas (my 2m beam is only 6 elements).
enjoy the 6m DX this week while I am in captivity at work.

Curt,
In point of fact the opening was SO BIG that DXMaps totally crapped out and was giving the infamous not found message. But its back up now

Signals from Europe are landing down south and also to the west coast. Interesting picture on dxmaps.com, clearly showing how the E-layer clouds (at least two of them) must line up specifically to bring the signals here. Maybe I missed an opening earlier? Maybe we will get some Eu propagation still.
Many 6m stations may not send their grid - send them a signal report if that is all they send - we can look them up after the opening.
6m newbies - we are in grid FM19.
FYI. Curt
