A bit of live meteor scatter and a bandscan of aircraft scatter while the Es MUF has subsided. Scatter conditions have shown some signs of improving after a lull for several days. The weather has been slightly warmer at 19 degrees, a few degrees higher than the forecast had predicted. Hopefully there will be some tropo over the coming days as that high pressure system moves closer.

Good DX!
