 Russia on 10 meters right now 59! Worked TA2AKG for a new one for me on 10 AM mode and a long chat with Jaakko OH1TX and also put Poland in the log: SP7VTQ. I am still fishing. Don't count this solar cycle out yet.

Still hearing Chuck on backscatter with G8NOF. Stateside is strong too. I just finished up with Chad, K5BST near Victoria, TX. He averaged around 5/9+20 and hit +30 at times!

I managed a UA3, several DJ's, several G's, and Aldo on 29.020. I got called about a dozen times from contesters too.

One of the better days for propagation on 10 AM this cycle since I worked a bunch of stations deeper in Europe, a few Russians, and Northern Europe. 

I wonder if the total ERP from all the contesters alters the ionosphere...{:>) < olde fashioned emoticon, non of these "appliance op" ones...

Great conditions.

Worked J69AH on 29.080 and I really thought it was someone being a wiseguy.
