Hi Stefan it may be daytime but both of those paths will be skywave even in
daytime at your power levels. Skywave and groundwave are about the same
starength at about 700km acording to all the papers. Dont forget the
waterfals are very non-linear it only takes about 3dB change in signal
strength to go from T to O+++, also you are seeing S/N which may be higher
in 4X4 although I got a rumble overhead a few minites ago and the rain was
horizontal.
