Amazing what a bit of increase in K can do to TA's in the MidWest this time of year. I had audio on over a dozen last night in Grafton WI with 657 Spain's 20 KW being decent for a while as an example, and tonite, just a few hets, no audio and not even from Mauritania 783 which isn't affected much by slightly AU cx, but was just a bit too weak to put audio past WBBM phase null. Most of my TA DX skips in from the Labrador area here..ie quite northerly and in general any increase in K spells the end, and with K's increase having a more sudden effect than A index.
