poor propogation, you can't do anything about it except listen as it
suddenly improves...
I can't hear much on any of the ham bands in Oklahoma, USA and the
atmospheric noise is 20 t0 30 over S9! But there have been some windows.
good luck

news
can any body give me a report on how they are finding the conditions on
the HF band....
i am having trouble receiving signals i can only hear very local
stations. i.e stations in the uk and France / Germany.
a couple of weeks ago i was able to turn my AR5000 anytime day or night.
and tune in to 14.275mhz on the 20meter band for station K1MAN the
international amateur radio network. i could receive this station with a
radio 5 signal 9+ no problem.
over the last few days i am finding it impossible to receive any station
apart from the very strongest signals from Germany and France...
any help would be great.....

current receiver AR5000A+3
main HF antenna Full sized G5RV run through an ATU.

location : London Heathrow

any advice would be great

Thanks: John
