Day started very poor, even 50 MHz was dead like a doornail
until noon. Early in the afternoon few Es clouds formed both
in the eastern and western part of Europe. The one above
Biscay finally crossed the ''magic line'' at 19.00 UT when
suddenly lots of BC was into UK and EI. At 19.30 UT 144 opened
from EA5,6 and EA7 into G, GW, EI, GI and PA0. MUF was like a
Jo-Jo, up'n down. But at 20:17 Es came back much stronger, now
also to DL, ON, OK, OZ and HB9 and EA and EA6 still pretty
strong into G and EI. Wide spread opening until 21:12 UT.
Involved DXCC: G, GW, GI, EI, PA0, ON, OZ, OK, DL, HB9, EA,
EA6, CT

Unfortunatly tonight it was a *very* short Es on 144MHz.
Even so, it's better than nothing :0). See you on 2m.

This is the big shot ! Esporadic (no new #) and a very nice
surprise : My fisrt QSO´s in FAI to Italy.
The big problem is all the Italy people as OK1TEH maybe are
coming from the Pub and the voice is very "scrambled" hi hi hi
(just a joke)
To OK1TEH sorry very much to take you out of Pub, but OK1MZM
is the guilty.

Finally a QRL-friendly opening (in my case)
openings really short abt. 1min each, could be more but maybe
path was leading into wet squares?

21:10 PA3DYS NC Heard again, but unable to complete for second
time.
It was a short opening, but very productive !, 100W + 9 ele.
At 19:42 I hear PA3BGM very weak calling another station, in a
very short opening. Then nothing. I was very frustrated ! In
the DX Cluster I was seeing EA5 and EA7 east from me working
G's. But at 20:56 the show begun !

Very spotty opening, heard many stations but signals vanishing
in a few seconds making QSOs imposible. This is the list of
the few complete QSOs, all worked with 35W. because PA blew a
few hours before. (Bad to read that, Gabriel, Ed.]

IONOSCATTER conditions have been amazing, if they get just a
little better I will be trying FM qso's on ionoscatter! Many
more stations now becoming active for this propagation which
is great. I hope you can find a spot for this to encourage
more stations to try it a single yagi and 400W is plenty when
conditions are good.
G8HGN, JO01fo
heard EA5EZJ IM98VX 5/9 @19:38 UTC
worked EB5HRX IM99TL 5/9 5/7 @ 20:58 UTC, but he did not get
my locator, and has my call as G4HGN, maybe next time, hi!
This evening the Es was up and down with me, I heard G8RWG
work EH5EZJ, but couldn't hear the Spanish staion at all, even
though Niels is only 15Kms away.
So far this season has been better than all of last year for
me, lets hope it continues,

EA6VQ on 293 being called by GW on 300
EA6DD very weak
A small E's opening from GW with very deep QSB.signals in and
out for an hour 59 then gone.

20:51 CT1FAK IN50qo 57 59 1499km
A quite late opening but not the latest one. I remember many
years ago when I made a couple of LZs around local midnight.
HB9JAW, JN47ce
By surprise I saw that the band opend up late in the evening.
Heard were CT1FAK and a CT2? station for quite some time at
21.02 ut. At 21.25ut with typical FAI sound I heard again
CT1FAK QTF 252deg. for over5 min RS 51 to 53. Never before I
heard at QTF 250 any FAI. What a surprise.´Interesting.´Still
looking for my last EA/CT square IM69
