Same conclusions here in central Texas. Lots of stations, but most were barely readable. I didn't hear any EU or Asian DX, partly because my Beverage was down and partly (mostly) because, although the band was quiet, conditions were sub-par.
I ran my TL-922 and an inverted-V (apex at 75 feet). Last year it was an inverted-L with elevated radials. This time, I could still work everything I could hear, but I might have heard more with the Bev and the Inv.-L. Still, very enjoyable. 73, Brad KV5V On Sun, Dec 6, 2015 at 3:00 PM, Jim Brown <[email protected]> wrote: > On Sun,12/6/2015 12:48 PM, Gary Smith wrote: > >> Conditions, conditions, conditions... >> > > Yep.
