Hi Dave, I'm sure it has. I noticed enhanced propagation toward OH1TN at 'auroral days' ever since I'm active on LF. It wasn't unusual for Reino's signal to be 10-15dB stronger at such occasions. I have the impression that this effect is more effective on a north-south path than on an east-west path. 73, Rik ON7YD
