North/South paths were excellent, but East/West paths were

non-symmetrical,
which suggests a tilted ionosphere. The further north you were, the more
exaggerated the effect was. I was hearing the W7/VE7's weak and watery,
but they reported my signal as huge. Meanwhile W1/VE1's who I had

20-over
were CQ'ing in my face.



Didn't think that could happen. I thought light (here radio waves)
would propagate
equally as well going as well as coming back. Like "If you can see my
face I also
can see your face".

I know this is not 'one way skip', but for a bit of interest... I used to
run skeds into VK land (Australia). During the null of a cycle. There
were times that when I beamed over the SOUTH POLE it was better than the
direct path.

I'm not sure it should be called 'one way skip'. But for lack of a better
term..hi.
