Will anyone in Europe be QRV tonight?

Here is last night's report:

Prior to 0300z QSB on the trans-Atlantic path was not as fast or
deep as the previous night, but signals were still not up to levels
seen on good nights. QSB became extremely fast after 0300z and
signal strength dropped sharply. It is a shame we have been so
unlucky with conditions this week. Imagine what could be
accomplished with this level of JT9 activity on one of the better
nights !

I completed a second QSO with G3KEV. I had logged him at 2317z after
receiving a 73 but it didn't appear Mal considered this complete. He
later called again and it was much better. I logged this one at 0015z.

I was called by OR7T who sent me a -26 report, but I lost him in
QSB. I note that Rik has given me -19 on WSPR on several occasions.
Propagation was clearly many dB down from the best nights, as the
report on JT9 should be the same as WSPR given same conditions (plus
or minus a bit for uncertainty in the decoder's S/N calculation).

DK7FC was in for hours, peaking -18, but only heard me once and we
could not complete. Stefan had a pile up of North American stations
calling.

On JT9 I logged G3KEV, WB4JWM, VE7CNF, and K9SLQ. I had a very easy
CW QSO with K9KFR (559/569). I almost completed on CW with VE7SL
twice but I was at a disadvantage trying to manipulate settings on
the SDR as conditions changed. I am well aware of the many
advantages of SDR but for me the human interface is so poor that I
lose QSOs when auroral copy is required. I am not adept with a
keyboard or mouse despite spending many hours at a computer every day.

I remain on MF until at least Wednesday, perhaps longer.

73,
