Hello Mike,
after the QSO with Dave I observed the band for several minutes, but there was
nothing to see, may be it was already too late. It seems to me that best condx
(for the path UK-HB) are between 19:00 and 20:00 UT.
I will call Xband again in the next evenings. Take care of your leg. I'm
expecting very long change over times.

73 de Toni
