Should have good conditions today on HF if things stay the same.
Alaska was booming in here yesterday. Got good reports from
Novosibirsk and Irkutsk in Russia and Temirtau in Kazakhstan on 20m
and Europe and the Canary Islands were very strong on 40m.

I got European Russia on 20 on Friday night.


Friday was a good night. Saturday, there were too many contesters on
so I did some listening around 6900. Barnyard Radio was on 6925 kHz
for over an hour around 0000UT and Radio Gaga had a short broadcast on
6935 kHz around 0100UT. Time is probably not too accurate but both
signals were strong here in Michigan.
