Well, what a difference a day makes. I found this morning's trans-Pacific MW
reception to be much poorer. I did have audio again on VOA Thailand/1575,
but weaker, and an unidentified station on 639 with threshold audio, but
that was it. Everything else was scattered hets across the dial... no other
TP audio.

I did note that my west Beverage had the strongest hets and audio today.
Yesterday it was the northwest wire providing the better signals.

It's been fairly wide open on all the low bands. Lots of EU on 75m.
Heard quite a few JA's on 160m this morning. And thats saying
something,
as usually I can't hardly hear them. I don't have beverages, etc....
But I was hearing them on my 40 ft dipole this AM. Heard Germany on
160 this evening, but kinda light..75m was rockin and rollin a couple
of nights ago. Real loud signals. It's ok tonight, but I have more
QRN tonight for some reason...I haven't even tried much MW yet...
Maybe do that this weekend if it's quiet. MK
