I associate Es contacts with the sun , being away in the Mediterranean things I like Just after lunch I saw a tweet reporting some 70MHz activity from the Netherlands to Finland . I popped up and checked , finding 50MHz fairly quiet . However , an interesting beacon coming in was OY6BEC quite short skip . Tried a few CQs on CW but no luck . Up on SSB SP3OCC was coming in , but couldn't work him . I scraped a QSO with SP5SS before finding some CW activity . Best DX over the next hour or so was into Estonia , but I had several contacts with SM , OZ , LY , OE , HA , E7 and IS0. A good start to the season Posted by Tim at 9:34
