Had nice QSO (cw) with Finbar, EI0CF, last night and again tonight with good signals reports both directions. These QSOs are about a month earlier than those of the past two years. Not sure if it's conditions or that we just didn't attempt it early enough last year. Jack, VX9ZZZ in Nova Scotia has also been in QSO with Finbar and reports hearing other EU stations besides Finbar even well before his sunset. I've heard Jack calling CQ evenings starting around NS sunset on 504 kHz and he tunes the band looking for answers. Jay W1VD WD2XNS WE2XGR/2 506.5 kHz
