My 20m dipole is oriented for NW-SE, so I’ll look for you too. — David, K9DWR #1604 LONP #255 david@...

I can usually get into Florida pretty well on 20 meters with the hexbeam, 40 uses a different antenna which isn’t as good but I’ll look for you. Paula K7PAX #1739

I'll be cross country in Florida, 40 has been pretty good all week. KI4VMK # 2542

If I survive mowing the lawn in the heat, I’ll be around about 0000z also, same routine as Paula. Mike WM4B #348 Sent: Thursday, August 24, 2017 4:58 PM To: 070@... Subject: [070]

I’ll be getting on the air tonight at 00:00 UTC for my daily contact for 8/25. Need it tonight as I’m going out of town tomorrow. I’ll try 20 meters first, then 40 if nothing is going on.

Steve Ford wrote an article about that a few months ago in QST, pretty interesting. 60 meters seems to open more now also. KI4VMK # 2542

For those of you who are around during the day time hours, don't count 40m as a "dead band". Been seeing stations in IN and NM from here near Chicago. Have made a few daytime contacts this summer

It's back for me now as well. Dave, AK7DB

At least up this way in Illinois. It's so quiet I think watching paint drying would be more fun ! Jerry N9AVY

It's up here in IL near Chicago ! Jerry N9AVY

Same here KI4VMK

Been trying to access the website this morning, keep getting a DNS address cant be found error. All my other places are working fine. Dave, AK7DB

I can’t believe I missed the opportunity to run an APE for this. It never occurred to me with all the preparations for the eclipse. :-( Maybe for the 2024 one… — David, K9DWR #1604 LONP

Mike, We won't mark a "black spot" against you for it, even though we were "left in the dark" about it. Glad that you had a great experience. It definitely got dimmer here in CT but nothing like

Jeff Thank goodness it was not our 1st contact. My mind was able to patch in all the gaps. take care Barry ---In 070@..., <jeffwalsh1644@...> wrote : Barry ...you are right the bands .... they are
