Hope springs eternal Gary.
We're in the midst of a geomagnetic upset right now, but it really
was only a few days ago (27 April) when I heard JJ stations on
1269. I plan to hear one or two more Asiatics as the days continue
to get longer. Watch me. I've developed a tradition of trying to
hear at least one of the big JJ guns around the summer solstice;
there's only a few minutes of darkness path, but they are
possible. Now, little guns, that would be interesting. I know I
heard the NHK2 synchros on 1152 at the solstice (admittedly at the
coast) before I heard them in the fall or winter months.
best wishes,
Nick

Hi Nick,
I guess sooner or later, we all need to accept the fact that the
long-running Asian TP-DX season cannot continue forever :-)
It was psychologically tough for me to come to terms with this fact
about a month ago, but there's no way to go up against the
unfavorable gray-line propagation indefinitely. The good news is
that a new Asian DX Fall Season is now only about 4 months away, and
the prime DU-DX season is only just beginning.
