Strong opening to Europe this morning also(couple hrs back)....

I heard the op but did not try make the contact.

I do not have a dipole for 17 and the yagi still needs put on the tower, after I put the tower up that is.

 

[kd-5-bgt]

Seems like every time I turn on the radio in the mornings 17 is a busy band,once again Europe is booming in

Get em while the getting is good !!

 

[wavrider]

I used to get on 17 meters at 1800Z, work into Asiatic Russia and all over EU.

Sometimes the band is better than other times, goes without saying but it is a GREAT DX band with not a lot of QRM.

 

[kd-5-bgt]

Europe and Russia once again rolling in,as is the east coast....liking this band more every time I turn on the radio
