Not many logs this week, since I was away from the radio Saturday and Sunday (visiting relatives). Based on other people's logs, I missed a good weekend.
Last night saw very good conditions on 76 and 180m. I heard Jan Van Gent using only 15 watts on 76 m, loud enough for several positive IDs. Many thanks to Dr. Tim and others in Iann's chat for help with the mediumwave IDs.
