Surprised that we are in this see-saw weather, way below normal one week, cooking the next. Well, with this next heatwave coming for most of the Eastern half of USA and Canada, some of these late nights, early mornings, could yield some nice Tropo Propagation on the VHF / UHF bands. I like to use our tax $$$$ funded propagational beacons, a.k.a. the 162MHz, 24/7, Weather Stations. I'll put a scanner, or an HT, on scan on those FREQ's and see if the DX Weather Stations start coming in, besides the two that I normally get. Then again, when a DX station goes over our local 162.400MHz Station, that's a good give-away as well. I think that heatwaves suck, but if it does indeed yield to some nice Tropo Enhanced DX, might as well enjoy that.
