I didn’t have much time for radio this weekend, but I did find the higher bands were still alive. I had a couple of contacts on 17m FT8 and did hear some stations on 10m SSB.

Just goes to show ya that there is still a bit of life left “up there.” I wonder how often the band is actually open, but quiet because nobody is there? Hmmm. Maybe we ought to try more often?
