propagation

[Tony Estep]

I know this isn't directly elecraft related, but propagation affects
everything -- anyway, it's 10 p.m here and I can hear Hawaii, Vietnam,
Russia, and South America all within a few Khz on 15 meters! Bring back the
good ole days!

Not so cool out here in on the Colonial Western Frontier Tony.  EU has
been "there" but weak today, not much else.  It's 2115 here, and 15 is
deadsville, so is 20 except for about 3 weak SA's.  They're far east of
us, they'll hit the rack soon.

Propagation is sooo magic.

I can mirror your statements.

Over here in Pennsylvania, we've been seeing the same occurrence of rather
rare Asian DX popping up. I'm a regular member up at K3MJW, the Skyview
Radio Society (http://www.skyviewradio.net).

Over the past two weeks, we've heard the following countries between 20 and
15 meters (mostly 20):

China
Hong Kong
Asiatic Russia
South Korea
Vietnam
Cambodia
India
Bangladesh
Mauritius
Madagascar
Lots of Australia
New Zealand
United Arab Emirates (2 stations)
Qatar
Kuwait (S9+40dB)
Galapagos
The Falklands
Egypt
Libya (not sure if this was a pirate or not HI HI)
Taiwan

And lots of other 'local' stuff.

The bands have really been shaping up lately. I can't wait to see if we get
some decent 10 and 6 meter openings mid-summer (Field Day possibly??). Time
to work some DX mobile on 6.
