Ref ur op 16
I have noticed over the years that a QRP station regardless of mode suffers more from QSB than the QRO merchants.
There could be an advantage using op16 for long haul with QRO stations but maybe op8 would do.
On 500 es 137 an option for op 2, 4, 8 or 16 would be useful. Selection would depend on distance and RF power out.
The majority of stns active at present appear to be QRP and suffer from the qsb effect. The outcome/results might well be totally different were the same stns running higher power over the same distances.

Mal,
 
Make sure you are  in the  right  frequency  band  for the  speed , or  no  stations  will  decode  you  ,   501.5 is on the  change over  frequency .  stay  with  OP4   as  16  is not  giving  good  decodes  at  range.

Tnx Jay
I could try tonite START 2300 utc 501.5 signal freq. Sigs to the West are low at present on 137 es from now on will not be as good as over the peak Xmas period generally speaking

501.5 kHz was clear this side last night ... will be glad to park a receiver on 501.5 to look for your (or any other EU) signals. Note that Stefan's signal was more than 10 dB down from usual last night although it looks like we're getting a fairly quick DST index recovery from the latest event.

Bob,      497 is still in the cluttered area ie 498.5 actual freq. How about 508 or higher for NA tx. In the UK 501.5 is not the ideal freq either, bad for the traditional CW operator working around 501.5 - 502.5 Khz. How about a spot higher up like 504 near the top band edge out of the way.
East coast USA stns let me know when the freq is clear and I will try some OPERA before the dx season dries up for this year.

N6ry had a long list of decodes. Going west the band was good. N6RY was rxing anywhere from -17 to -21. Also decodes from W0YSE in UTAH he was having bad QRN condtions but still some solid decodes. Nothing from VK. Surprisingly nothing across the pond.
Hopefully better tonite. I have been asked to move out of the DX window as it is rite in your small transmit freq window. Some rxing stations here in NE are trying to decode UK/EURO opera/ros. Wish them luck but skip as of late has been short with very strong sigs close in. I overload their RX. 
I checked PA3WEG RX and 497 dial [498.5 sigs] looks very clean. I'll fire up there and notify on 600 mrg-lowfer-opera about move.
