Nice opening to IN78 and IN88 with loud signals and no QSB, easy to work, just like short skip on 10m.

Comment:
Great Tropo opening to West from my portabel QTH near my QRL in JN49OV. Heard many station also from GU, GW and EI (EI4DQ 1232 km) but only 8 QSOs were possible with my QRP power. I was very surprised what i even coud see the inversion layer after sunset in the dark! In direction west the lower sky was illuminated by the city lights of the Frankfurt urban area as expected. But some degrees obove the horizon there was a "darker layer". Above this dark layer the sky was again illuminate by the city lights. Later the evening, signals getting weaker, the illumination above this dark layer dissapeared. Sorry but no photos from this phenomenon.

Nice Tropo, little bit too far inland but caught edge. Stations in IN78 faired better for duct. Fantastic visible inversion to North and West. 73 all

I was frustatingly listening to GW8JLY East of me & EI4DQ to the West working the DX to the east with nil heard here in that direction for about an hour. Fortunately, in the meantime, I had an opening to EA1 to amuse myself with. Once the duct to the east favoured my location it was great with some very loud signals. Lovely to catch some decent tropo at last & nice to get an "LX" in the log again after such a long time. Tnx to all who responded to me.
