| K7WV Grayland DXpedition Results Oct 06-07 2012 |
| |
|
|
| With a solar flux of 106 (up from 85 last year) I wasn't
expecting great things to emerge from this year's sessions at Grayland.
Indeed the Alaskans were a little weaker and scarcer than previous years
(16 heard) but we did enjoy a fine opening to Asia around dawn on the
6th. |
