OTR 6770 AM 0944 UTC 19 Aug 2017
« on: August 19, 2017, 1555 UTC »
Faded in around 0944z. Some peaks to SIO 333, and maybe even SIO 444 around 1005z, and a few more times later on as well.
Faded out around 1104z.
Back again around 1144z.
Signed off at 1200z sharp (well they were off by 5 seconds, but close enough), I am pretty sure this was a sign off vs a fade out.

OTR is rarely heard here overnight, so it seems like the 43 meter band opened for NVIS around this time, which is unexpected, but that's often how propagation works  ;D

Nice to hear OTR again.
