If top band is anything to go by, the tests should be continued for at least an hour after EU local sunrise, and similarly an hour before local sunset. Band conditions usually peak well after local dawn. I remember early October to be the best time for the G-ZL path, which is when I worked ZL3GQ many years ago around my local dawn, but openings were a few minutes only. Assuming this exercise is on QRSS, I shall not be participating myself. 73s Dave G3YMC dsergeant@iee.org dsergeant@btinternet.com http://www.dsergeant.btinternet.co.uk
