Re: [IRCA] Michigan DUs this morning 9/6/2015

Not sure where the K indices were when you had the hets, but if transpolar then perhaps Japan, S-N Korea, Taiwan et al. Have had these that way from Newfoundland. And one morning from Burnt River ON had lots of hets on the N-S antenna just before sunrise one morning during the solar minimum a few years ago. I'm a bit surprised that North Americans would hear Down Under via the pole, but someone please correct me if I'm wrong - and tell me where I should be aimed!
