Great logs, Dave! I was at my dad's house & only had a Sony 2010 with about 50 feet of wire. I checked the band between 0900 and 0925 last night, but only had some carriers (no audio was making it...well, except for Mystery):

6210 Radio Mistletoe
6220 Mystery Radio
6259.8 Radio Paardenkracht
6296 the open carrier
6310 Radio Lowland or Cobra

Now that I'm back home, I'm hoping to catch a few broadcasts over the next few days.

Well I see the Pennsylvania guys checked in!

Unfortunately, I had too much roast leg o' lamb on Christmas, and I slept through all the activity Friday morning.

Seems conditions Friday morning were as good as they were Thursday morning. Hope they'll be just as good on Saturday morning, too.
At 0244 UTC, Radio Oscar Zulu is still on 3905, seemingly running all night. Conditions on 76-mb have been well above average the past couple of days. Here's hoping that the morning will be active, and propagation to North America will continue to be well above average.

Hee, hee
Kitten and fat cat Iggy are still happy from the roast leg of lamb for Christmas, hee hee! Sorry the 3 of us slept in and missed the Lowland/Cpbra show this morning, as it looks like the signal made it very well across th Ocean.

I hope you will have another show for us on New Year's Eve or New Year's Day.
May I wish you all a Vey Happy and Prosperous New Year 2009, and may the propagation gods smile on us all!
