Had fair rx on my G5RV and fair-to-good on my MLA-30. Not the gangbuster rx I was hoping for and had experience at least one time before solar minimum, but FoF2 seems to have plateaued during the hour. Don't know if that had anything to do with anything.

My cousins mother in law was Frisian. Now she's a pile of bones. She had good looking daughters and plug ugly sons. She never should've married that guy from Rotterdam, he's to blame for the ugly sons, they all looked just like him.
