Greetings all:

Hope your day is going well. I started on 2200 meters and after 3 hours and decoding only 1 station a
couple of times in FST4W-1800 mode; I decided, enough of that, and switched to look for lowFER - SIW.
lowFER propagation was good again and I received SIW a couple of times for a true decode in OP32.
As evidenced on the WSPR-x waterfall; I received the signal a few times in WSPR15 that didn't decode.
Nonetheless; I am pleased with the payoff.
*** Maybe Garry will comment on this; I did notice that after the OP32 sequence, I saw no traces at all of
the Graphical portion of the transmission. As good as propagation was; I assumed I would see a few
smudges of the graphic at the least. Not certain it is still transmitting that portion of the sequence.

73 to all, and Best DX to you:
