 Grin  It's 100 uV for S9 - at least on 20 meters.

JW was running 400 watts and a big yagi. Still hearing many 57-59 sigs out of EU, including GW3TMP on 29010.

I heard you working TMP. Almost broke in. A little less neighborhood QRN would have made you OK copy here.

Gs still coming in now 15:15 loco time 29.1. This did not happen during the last two cycles on 29xxx AM.

Indeed. I was hearing them (mostly western UK, Wales and Ireland) still coming thru as late at 3:30 ET (1930 UT). I was off for a bike ride and missed the Pacific prop at out sunset. Anything good?

Seems it was like that last year too, Steve. I recall the Sunday after NEAR-Fest when signals were booming in from across the pond on 10. You were going in to work more when I headed home around 4PM.

I came home and built a 15m dipole. Go figure.  Grin

Nothing special at sunset from Pacific heard and I was not calling. Plenty o KH6 on ssb,
Most EU openings on 29xxx lasted only a couple hours last year at my location Todd.

IIRC, the openings on 10 started a little later last years, so the days were shorter. I was in the UK last week. It remained light there until about 7-7:30 PM local. Not for long!
