Yeah, I enjoy that also.  Back in 1978 I think it was, the sporadic E was so 
good that there were Florida stations on our Central Michigan repeater.  I 
listened to a couple Florida stations on FM broadcast band, and the weird 
thing was, when the  ionization level started to disintegrate, it did so at 
a pretty rapid pace, but it was still slow enough that I caught some 
Virginia FM stations as the skip completely disappeared.
