There was an unusual global opening on 6M about three weeks ago which seemed
to go almost unnoticed.

A great friend of mine, W3E (Emeritus professor from East CT State
University) and I were 599 plus 30 with each other.
I only have 6M on my R8 vertical, he uses 8 elements at 100 feet and was
working ZS, all over Europe, China and so on.  It is worth listening for the
beacons on 6 and 10M to find these unexpected openings.
