Lots and lots of carriers tonight for sure, Don.  It's actually still afternoon...4:40 pm, so not dark for another hour or so.  I must have carriers on at least 50% of channels.  None with audio, yet, but some mighty close.  Even have a carrier on 1521, which is a rarity here.  I'm going to stay close to the dials tonight, if possible!  Let's hope that something does develop and the dreaded Hall-Patch Effect doesn't come to pass!.........Walt in Victoria.
