JD;
I thought Kansas.  That sure is a good "HOP" from here in NY.
I Have been getting the report here.  I just got a report from Gary, G4WGT showing the band in the UK at his QTH. 72.4 looks better but that's not what I heard from F6CNI.  Last nite I ran OPERA 65 all evening till after 0500 with no results whatsoever on 74.550. I am planning to run WSPR 15 tonite  either on 72.5 [73 dial] or 74.550 [73 dial freq with 1550 tone upper sideband].
I would try QRSS 60 tomorrow night.
Am going to fire up at 2300 as soon as a freq can be determined for the WSPR operation-Bob
