Congrats on Guapi, flexoman!

GPI is a great indicator of props from the south.

Thanks jFarley. I've been having a lot of fun on LW this winter,
very addictive.

Although SDRs and loop antennas seem to do a whole lot better.

I almost forgot...

If you want to add another country before the season ends, give TKL 385 (Guatemala) a try.  Generally good signals to NA when props favor the south.

Good DX!
