One problem I’m seeing is more migration of stateside contacts to .323 when .313 is sparely populated. The band has been open pre-sunrise to midnight or so here almost every day for several days now and it is good to see people on the air. But it will not help if they are spread all over the band working in-country. .323 is great for making a controlled attack to EU stations with everyone on 1st sequence in EU and 2nd sequence for the US, but when w6 is working w6 and several others on .323, it doesn’t make sense. It’s nice to be able to crank up things and not see a bunch of strong signals while you’re trying to hear the faint ones that are barely showing on the waterfall.
