6m to the USA and Canada

Yesterday was the first time this summer I have experienced a widespread opening on 6m to North  America. 

I suspect this was E layer but whether it was multi hop Es or some kind of chordal E layer I can’t tell. 

Certainly Es was very good in Europe last evening with about 700+ spots of my 6W FT8 from all over Europe. 

My 6W FT8 was spotted by 6 stations in the USA  using the vertical omni and I spotted multiple stations on RX. See map showing the stations spotted here on the omni - quite a few!!
