"R33M made 1,080 (47%) of their non-ground-wave QSOs in Zones 28 and 29 on 20/15/10 meters. This strongly suggests that short-skip Es was present on the higher bands!" 73, Bill -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/Es-Season-seems-to-have-arrived-tp6392523p6393855.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
