Hi Brian... yes I am surprised too... but I'm finally in the skip zone now...

5790 khz only weak at my QTH , surprisingly... weird propagation conditions... maybe the current minor solar storm explains it.

Skip is strange tonight. 7700 should be better at this time into Holland (Twente SDR) but 5790 is better. Very odd.
