DX midAMerica NOTES/QUOTES!
Welcome to the DX dialogue/Roundtable page. These are basically comments or reactions sent at the end or along with your loggings to DX-midAMerica! Rather than going through everything posted, you can get a general "feel" for how things are, or have been of late, or what you might have missed! Comments will be kept up a few months as conditions change day to day and minute to minute!
A line will separate monthly entries:
May 03: This is how BAD it was. Most of the band was DEAD. These are lousy logs, as far as I'm concerned, but a snapshot of day's activities, or lack, thereof!
May 02: A month from now, this will look quite good, for sure.
May 01: The AM doldrums have set in..but something to report anyway.

Apr 23: While not great, a certain improvement of doldrums of earlier in the week.
Apr 22: High noise floor. Barely anything in, but still tried for what was out there. High noise floor didn't help today.
Apr 21: After NOTHING yesterday, a power black-out, best I could do. Sleeping in? You missed nothing. Worse than July-like.
Apr 19: 1340 WJOI was running open carrier, easily 22+ hours (on AM FM) -many UNIDS but, best I could do, I guess.
Apr 17: Weak and really weird cx. Almost non-existant.
Apr 13:Well, KWAY WMDX WBKK KQLX KYES WJAG KXFN and KMSD hasn't been noted this week, so dial is changing daily.
Apr 12: DX in a downturn for sure this morning, but always fun, for sure, trying. Coffees, planning the day & a nice 2-mile dog walk, for sure.

Mar 26: Nothing great here. Went down sharply after KOTA.
Mar 24: DX died early. Life support most of the morning.
Mar 22: Wow. What a morning - basically E-W and what was in yesterday, not in today, nor 2-3 days ago. Ag News on 1270, but my ad blockers (which I'm not removing) prevented live stream. Patience is a virtue.
Mar 21: Wow! The DX dried up bad! Much, much shorter session. Who knew that teenager hearing WSPT in the 1960's would still be doing the hobby so many decades later!
Mar 20: Not as good as yesterday, shorter session. Sat on 1270 again today. No KNWC nor WMKT. Nothing to pull out-IE KLXX.
Mar 19: So geo-fitted to SD ND this morning w/KGIM KZZJ KGFK KOLY KBMR KOTA KOVC KQKD KDKT, I'm pretty sure I had KLXX, but cannot count as new. There'll be other days to try.
Mar 18: After being up super early, basically a "C" grade morning. Nothing great, but fun trying, I guess.
Mar 17: Nothing great but three new ones. Just catching up on some recordings to review. Happy St. Patrick's Day
Mar 12: Finally I get to report one of my most memorable logs ever! I now have the lower 48 complete. Will Alaska or Hawaii ever end up in my logbook?
Mar 12: Began at 0615. Ended at 0801. Not exactly November! ;)
