Yesterday by this time, I had been spotted all over Europe and widely in South America on 10m JT65. Although I am spotting a little DX, today is nothing like yesterday. I know there is still time for things to improve, but I have the feeling this is going to be a "bad hair day". If we get any real DX, it had better happen soon! At least having 2W 10m JT65 running I am spotting, and being spotted, by some. Even with 100W SSB I doubt these openings would have been noticed.
You are right, the band is realy bad, not dead !!!
