Hi Roger,  I am surprised that you thought no one was on,  we are participating in the contest as EI23M,   40m was awful last night,  and we were on 160m  sporadically last night. , though we missed sunrise.  There were always SSB stations on whenever we were,  I think we worked abt 70 stations

Dave,You have to witness the LF bands from EU, with so many countries in a relatively space, packed on small bands, you don't have a clear frequency. If you have directional receive antennae, that does help. I couldn't raise C6AGU ( eu qrm),  HI3CC didn't hear well, nor PJ2T,  OR ZW5B.

I have no axe to grind, I wasn't QRV. Hever,  Nick does raise a good point. First, if it is correct there is a small possibility of propagain around Sunset for Serbia and Ukraine, 20 minute window to Baker Is.   However, it's not really the dx season for EU to Pacific. With great respect

Maybe there should be an award for being received at a Web sdr location, the folks that only want real remote receiving don't need to have any real qso's !! Sounds nuts to me 73 Dave G3NKC  Sent from Samsung tablet Original message From: Roger Kennedy
