Terry;
Yes I saw that and the one ROS decode.  I had to QRT at 0600 to be able to get up at 1000.  Band came alive late and guess stayed in there. 
Had a bunch of decodes into Iceland but all OPDS as well as YV7MAE.  No ROS OP all OPDS.
Band was good East to West as ROS OP made it to both VE7's and some other US stations-73, Bob

Fact is OPDS is the best program out there!  Not just by a couple DB but I would say 6 Dog Biscuits better. Bob
