No AZ today, but NW was good copy from before 10:00 AM up until at
least 4:00 PM. I copy on my tri band beam and he was perfectly good
copy with the beam pointed toward NC and that group. Interestingly
enough didn't get decent copy on any of them until 4:00 PM PST; must
have been a disturbance as propagation program indicated they should
have boomed in all day. Last count for today:
NW
UWL
MP
NC
It's 5:00 PM PST now and can't hear any signal. Yesterday at this time
the band seemed wide open to the east.
