Comment:
All worked with 25W + 10 el yagi. Was not quite in the duct, but the long DX was not drowned out by louder, closer signals. QSYed to 1296MHz after 1730 because of local TV QRM making 2m unusable in the direction of the opening :-(

Comment:
I heard also GI4SNA IO64XM 1534km, G8DOH IO92FA, G1MHU IO93GO, G4SWX JO02RF, PE9GG, PA5C, and two other stations from GM3 on CW

I worked remote with 40W only and with fixed direction to West.
Sorry for my poor cw operation...
Tropo duct was unstable, lot of qsb. But at my QTH i have about 15minutes with S-9 signals from G4DHF, G8GXP, and S-7 signals from G0GXT, M0VXX/p, MW1LCR.

In the morning 02.10.2015 I can copy OZ7IGY/b with 569 and LA8VHF/b with 529 with antenna pointed to West (not 330deg).
