Re: [HCDX] [dxld] Re: The Cross



I checked off and on for the between 0700-0930z this morning (UTC Feb 20) and not even a carrier present. I had assumed they were off, as I have been receiving generally fair signals from them for the past week or two. Perhaps the solar flare was causing lousy conditions over the path.
