www.fmdx.es: #fmdx : Band II DX Loggings for 10 August 2015

Hi All,

Out of nowhere came a very nice opening this evening towards Spain and Morocco. The Moroccan part was the best I have had this season. The opening featured slow fading and no movement of the Es cloud. Furthermore the skip area had a relatively narrow path, which mostly gave just one DX station on a single frequency.
This was day three in a row with both Band II Es and Band II tropo.

Best regards,
Janpeter van Dijk, Zoetermeer, The Netherlands.
