As I type, this is what's happening on 6. East Coast working into Africa; west of the Mississippi working into Japan.
Some distances between stations are over 10,000 km.
Sunspots not required.  Cheesy

I worked a few domestic U.S. stations in the west but I was specifically looking/searching for stations in China on SSB or CW. There was one on JT65 when I captured the activity above never heard any on CW or SSB before the band closed to that area.

Right about the time you posted that dream pic the band opened up here in EN82 southeast michigan to both texas EM12 W5VB and W4ICU florida EM70 for a quickie. I was on my Lafayette HA-460 into a M2 loop about 15 feet off ground when I made contact. I fired up the Clegg Zeus station for alot more power but by time it warmed up I lost my condtions for the evening.

As I type, band is open across the U.S. and into China, South Korea, Japan , and even a report of a contact between the mid-west and Sweden.
