Bands suck again
Hopefully it's very temporary.
By the time I get home from the office, around 0000 UTC, things are already fading. 2 hours later, they're terrible.
80-160 still have strong signals but the higher bands are shot at this hour.
I'm taking up knitting, though, and expect to be very good at it in about fifty years.

I always enjoy an optimist!
Anyway, I was just noticing the that 40 meter band really sucked tonight!

Strange 40m conditions. Had a SSB QSO with an XE. He and an Argentina station were the only strong signals on the band. No domestic even heard. It has kinda shifted now.

Around 01:00UTC All I could hear on twenty was a neighbor's plasma TV.
Oh Well, did the dishes.....

20 has been in the tank EARLY every evening the past few days.
Did work Borneo the other night though. I suppose that was good.

I've seen the same thing on 40 CW last few nights. Very few US stations, one night heard PY0 and FG5 that were both working stations great, but I did not work either. Very rare I hear something and don't get response. Of course 15M during the day last weekend was great along with few 10M and 6M openings.
