Island Expedition, NA-129 Banks Island

As predicted, the active geomagnetic conditions and solar flares made for dismal conditions from the polar region. Too much D-layer absorbtion for the low bands and too much aurora for the high bands. I started at 1600z and only made 6 qso's in the first four hours! 20m opened up for Eu sunrise, not strong but steady for a couple of hours and then closed up tight. Only worked a single JA station!

John,
after na-006 last year, you managed to get my (first !) call out of the QRM, despite the bad condx.
Great job !
