This winter's propogation has been more miss than hit, even when compared to
low sunspot cycles of past years. Heard a ham on one of the 80 meter nets last
week complain that these continually poor propogation conditions have been the
worst he'd ever experienced this deep into winter. He'd never seen long
path/short path skip so uneven in distribution, or absolute in fadeouts! Even
the pathways are wierd. Last week, B.B.C.'s Singapore & Sackville relays were
non-existent; Radio Australia barely rising above the thresh-hold, but Radio
Netherland's Madagascar relay was booming in. At least until 1400 G.M.T. when
it too faded into oblivion!!!

That fellow obviously hasn't been around long enough, either that or he just
wasn't paying much attention.

Still plenty of dx out there, you just have to seek it out, same as always.
