It's been sooo long since we've had any propagation that, yes, I'm
excited!  A quick look at DX Summit ( http://oh2aq.kolumbus.com/dxs/ )
this morning further confirms this.  Take a look at the propagation
forecast at:  http://www.dxlc.com/solar/

 

Even without sunspots there have been some band openings...I worked
South Cook Is. (southern Pacific Ocean) on CW a couple days ago on 18
MHz running 5 watts on my K2.  That was encouraging after not breaking
several DX pile-ups over the past few weeks.  The majority of
DXpeditions work split which gives QRPers a chance.  For free weekly DX
bulletin downloads go to:  http://www.arrl.org/w1aw/dx/
<http://www.arrl.org/w1aw/dx/>   There is also Keplerian data (for
satellites) and general bulletins available.

 

72 es gud dx,
