[OKDXA] EU DX this AM

[Robert Redmon]

John,

Band was open to EU the past two mornings. Great signals! Made17 contacts 
during the openings...but only two new countries (E7 and OE).  Also worked 
DL, HA, 9A, LA, PA, I, S5, SM, YU, and OH. Last time I had this good an 
opening to EU was 2 years or 3 years ago.

> Before this, the only DX I had worked on 6m this Es season was VE, XE, and
