Comment:
High MUF all day.
In morning potential ES towards 4X, later TA, SV = NIL
At 10:30 it activated briefly towards EA and then
strong ES towards NW> F and SI> G.
Strong signals on ft8 from F8DBF, F6DBI, F6EAS > worked before 9days
Also hrd strong sign G4LOH, wkd b4.
Later abt 16z HI MUF towards UA3, in 19z to LA,SM but no hrd ES 2m.
An exciting day with a small catch. But OK, I'm happy for any QSO ES 2m.

Comment:
an up and down with the signals.
SV7GBR and LZ2ZY worked in SSB and were only heard briefly.
If there is no competition on the band, it works without problems with only 50W.
It would be nice if the FT8 stations would switch to SSB when the signals are strong.
Their yield would be significantly higher.

Nice opening over a few hours, but at least not open all the time at my side. Heard many other stations in FT8 like 9H, SV, SV6, SV9, YO. Even one station, I7 from JN70, in SSB!! Glad to catch some stations today, thanks for that. 73, Ralf

Another disaster - not at home for a massive Es opening again.
Caught the very end - copied a few SV2 stations and was copied by Alex SV1NZX in KM17VV at 2568 Km just as the opening faded away.. Next time will be better I am sure.

I see on monitor F5HIJ, F4EZJ and i heard on SSB F1NZC, F5HIJ.
The opening was not ideal for me, the ES cloud was too near.

Comment:
Long duration opening, but very unstable signals, so had to call some stations several times in order to complete.
Heard: TA1BM (+40 dB) and SV9CJO (-18 dB, twice for 1 period).

At 18:50 and 19:05z there were 2 short openings. The first to RK3AF and the second to RA1WR. Both NC.

Comment:
Such an amazing opening, MUF was high across Europe - firstly above SV/TA/4X then a big oval of high MUF that allowed me to make impossible contacts into EI, GW, GI (!!!). 4 hours of 6m-like FT8 sporadic waterfall. GI6ATZ close to the end called me out of the blue and reached -03 to give me my ODX and new DXCC/# on 2m.
The second opening was to the N where, whilst CQing was heard in SM JO89/JO99 and OZ, giving the Swedes cause for celebration but the extension didn't last to work then.. I worked SP stations and also heard LY, YL. in KO14, KO02, KO26.

Amazing times and, had it not been for the digital tools we have at our convenience, we may not have been able to understand how large/extended these sporadic conditions are, even on 2m.
