A fair DU morning. Nothing too great, mostly NZ and some Pacific. It
started off last night with strong AU cx for CA and Pacific, but never
quite got up to what I had hoped. I returned up my EWE antenna and
readjusted it for the nulls so it is working fine now. Hopefully this
Fallwill be a good one, but with the sunspots so high, who knows. Last
season was one of the poorest I have encountered.
