So in an attempt to find out if T/A propagation really is better then, I propose to do some tests tomorrow morning, starting before or at 0400 and carrying on until 0700 or so - so if US listeners would like to leave their gear running until then, hopefully something will be seen. I will try QRSS60 on 135.9225kHz, unless someone is already there, in which case I will re-tune a few tenths of a Hz. Any reports will be very welcome. Cheers, Jim Moritz 73 de M0BMU
