Up where I am, May through early August has been prime 6M season Sporadic E. Then, there's the very short Winter "E" season right around Christmas to about the 1st, or 2nd, week in January. A bit longer for 10M, 12M, and especially 11M. I've had a 10M QSO via "E" a couple of days ago, so maybe we just might have a decent 6M "E" Winter season, for once. That would be nice.
