Hello John,
indeed remarkable condititions.
While condx were good across the pacific, transatlantic propagaton was poor last night
Maybe the opening started too late for Europe (already daylight). LA2XPA is located very north, with short days and long nights. And he has a low noise location and good antennas.
Let's hope the coming noght will be good for us.

With very quiet geomagnetic conditions and positive-moving DST values, 630-meters was very good last night both from the standpoint of WSPR as well as domestic QSO's on JT9 and CW.
One of the highlights appears to be the first time reported opening between KH6 and Europe on WSPR, specifically K9FD/KH6 and LA2XPA.
Merv indicates that this was a rather late report, occurring at 0910z and -28 dB S/N, and had a similar character to a 160m CW QSO with Rolf back in 2013 at 1549z.
Congrats to these two for taking advantage of a stellar opening. The Pacific was a good location to be during this session, it seems, as K9FD, KL7L and VK4YB all had strong sessions to JA as well.
