Propagation is just a small part of the game.
It is a big part of the game up here in the North .
This morning, 27 sept o6 UTC I checked the signals spotted on the
clusters.
The only audible signal was on 40 meters SP, with auroal flutter.
The forecast is not particularly optimistic either,
You cant believe how weak they have been through the Auroral belt from
Sandinavia !!
Working over the North Pole is our biggest problem as the band often is not
even open at all.
We were delighted that K7C was manned by " experienced operators " which
suggested they knew this.
So far it has been
I have been reading all of the mail concerning the K7C operation and gosh I
feel guilty.. I only need KURE on 10 meters but when I set there and
listen to a 20 over nice signal I just have to work them I really hope I
haven't kept some one, who needs them, from working them... But guys

Most hams think the JA's are polite and orderly in a pileup. But when you
get close enough to Japan to hear the 5 watters you find out they can be
just as unruly as any Italian or American pileup.
At XZ0A, the only way I could hear or work anyone

Early this mornin
I noticed this with KH9/W0CN yesterday too. I caught him on SSB yesterday
afternoon and pointed out that he had big signals on 40 to the USA during
our SR but was working JAs at that time. I asked if he would listen for
us, but was kind of disappointed in his answer.
I guess we'll just have to
I approve of that attitude. If you dont need it, let somebody else have a

I would think you would not call, on a band you have confirmed, on the first
day. Is it possible someone that needs Kure did not get through since you

I second that feeling. I was able to break the JA wall this morning on
40 before my sunrise. However, they also showed up on 80m with a very
good signal into Colorado just before my SR. Many 0s, 6s & 7s were
calling and calling yet they continued to work mostly JAs. I listened for
a while befor

One of my pet peeves is DX operations that don't observe propagation. I
called K7C a bit this morning on 40 CW at 1300Z and they were working
mostly JA's. At that time they only had a short amount of time left for
propagation to USA and another several hours to JA. Best utilization of
