Sporadic E to Japn
 
The last few days have revealed a flurry of activity on Six Meters
between the U.S. and Japan via Summer Solstice Sporadic E propagation.

I was able to nail QSOs with JA7QVI and JA7WSZ using CW for my 79th 6m
DXCC country and my first QSO with Asia, thus completing a 6m WAC.

I telephoned WA8JOC since I new that he needed Japan on 6m and Shep
worked JA7QVI off the back of his yagi to complete his 6m WAC.

More 6m Sporadic E to Europe & N. Africa

More 6m Sporadic E to EU and AF
 
Apologies for my initial post without text.

There's plenty of Sporadic E propagation to Europe and Africa today:

I worked CT1HZE via CW and four EA8 stations with SSB. There were a
number of Italian and Spanish ops. I heard EA4UW 5/7 but he couldn't
copy my 900w and 5 element yagi at 73 ft.

Dave,

I was able to work CT1HZE on ssb, and a Canary Island station too.
The other one, EA4UW, could not hear me either if it makes you feel any
better; I am in NJ.

If there had been any more EA8 stations, it would have sounded like
Canaries Field Day. I caught CT1HZE on CW and later found him up the
band for an SSB QSO. CT1ANO was also on SSB. There was a station in
Gibraltar but he was never strong enough at my QTH for a QSO. I heard
many calling EA4UW but few actually working him.

73,

Dave K8MN
