HAS ANYBODY BEEN GETTING ANY GOOD SKIP LATELY???

[yota167]

Sun doesn't have to be out...I been getting the best skip after dark to the east coast till about 9:30pm before it dies out for the past couple of weeks.

Exact same here in the buckeye.

No the Sun does not have to be out -- but I sure see a difference.

Love night skip

Sunday I was cruising and found a breif opening on 10meters to Europe. I didn't try getting back at him , 28something MHz between the rtty and cw stuff.

Okay I thought we were talking CB radio.

I have been a working a mobile out of Honolulu (5826 i think) on my way to work for the past 2 afternoon on my way to work 38 lsb.

I worked 717 in Alaska today from the mobile rolling down the interstate on 37lsb.

We'll, the OP asked if anybody got any skip lately. Thought I'd share, whoopsy, my bad mam.

'We'll, the OP asked if anybody got any skip lately. Thought I'd share, whoopsy, my bad ma"

no its my bad...I tend to relate cbradiotalk to CB AM and forget people really use their USB and LSB which I intend to get more into soon.

Skip was crazy today on lsb I'm in southern alberta and made contact with guys from Rochester,Chicago,Arizona,California. Was talking on my mobile setup bearcat 980 ssb barefoot with a Wilson 1000 mag mount. 845 Southern Alberta here in case you hear me out there.

Hey..

The skip/propagation has not been that great for about 3 months now.

I used to pick up some skip on AM, USB and LSB early n the morning, but now it shows up about 11 or 12 noon.

Mother Nature is on her usual 'change of the seasons' rampage and things shud get better soon.

Been hearing Florida tonight. Last couple/three nights I have gotten to Hawaii, Aruba, and the other islands above South America area. Hawaii was about 4 days ago I think.

[DevilDog66]

A few days ago I was hearing A guy out of Puerto Rico on ch 6 on my little Midland 1001 LWX, but I'm not sure if he was hearing me, their were other stations coming through, propagation was kinda heavy.

It's been pretty quiet around here for a few weeks (Pgh). On the way back from a break in Reading PA, heard a little bit of DX on the bowl out of Florida, but other than that it's been dead.

[Big blue]

Things have been whisper quiet here in the Phoenix area over the past few days.............

[Space Ghost]

Got in with the big dogs last week on 38 LSB. Upstate SC to San Diego and the area 3 days in a row on 20 watts and a wire dipole.

[DevilDog66]

Yesterday answered a radio check from a guy in Missouri, I believe he I.D'd himself as 73 Missouri. This was at 1830 hrs. I guess the conditions in SE Louisiana are pretty good right now. I can't believe my rig was able to rx and tx with that guy.

[Lost Ram]

I am up here in Shreveport, LA. A couple days ago I was able to talk some ground skip to San Antonio, TX. That was pretty rare. Two days before that I heard a mobile just inside of Louisiana talking to the same area.

[Tweetybird]

Have not heard much here since 9/12 here in Ohio.That only lasted for a half hour early evening with NJ and Georgia rolling in,looks like the skip for my area is on vacation.

[1206FL]

My local pal told me he had a three way conversation with Saint Croix and Jacksonville, FL at the same time. This was from the Central FL area. Said he also talked to Sarasota, FL from his qth on the east coast as well. He is near Daytona Beach. Had them on both his 3 element and a sirio 827 gpk, which he just got. It's sporadic and you gotta catch it. By the time I got home it was dead at 5:30pm.

[silvereagle1]

Dead here in Tennessee. Worked a station in Brazil last weekend for a few minutes that was it. Been dead ever since.

[WK2]

It's been dead here in Middle Tennessee as well. Only thing hitting is Local Traffic and of course CH-19. As we move further away from the sun into the fall/winter phase we will be receiving less sun spots from the big shinny orange ball in the sky.

Hearing 4444 out of Cali at the moment. 5-7 s-units at times with that 35 dollar Obama radio!! I can hear others in the background but ol' 4444 is covering most of them up.

[Buzzweiser]

Been getting a little skip here in Ohio from South America and some of the Islands in the late afternoon/early evening hours. Been weak but it's there. Worked Peru on Wednesday after work in the mobile on 455USB. My buddy worked Skymaster from Downunder the same day on 475lsb but that lasted only about 3 minutes.
