This was my personal best opening I have known to CZE and SVK. It was purely accidental too as I was only recording the top of the band for meteor scatter, not expecting any Es. My antenna was vertical; and pointing north-east too.
Due to time constraints I am only logging personal firsts and other stations of interest, so my loggings do not reflect the conditions for the day.

Holbeach Log: 2020-06-14 (Es: DNK S)
88.0 1120 S Star FM, Vännäs/Granlundsberget TM (vb) E245 1629km **
88.6 1126 S RIX FM, Ånge (vn) Jingle ID 1381km **
101.2 1155 S Megapol, Unlisted site E243 MEGAPOL_ **
97.2 1224 DNK DR P3, Rangstrup/Gammel Tøndervej 28 (sdk) More likely to be Es due to signal
strength 9203 617km **
91.8 1231 S SR P1, Arjeplog/Galtispuoda TM (no) 300 watts. As 88.3 1736km
** Personal first
I am quite sure that my reception of Rangstrup on 97.2 was sporadic E. Although I can receive the Rangstrup transmitter on aircraft/troposcatter, this transmitter never reaches anything close to RDS levels in these modes and is only ever down in the noise. It's rare too and and requires good scatter conditions. I would find it hard to believe that it came up to RDS levels by chance at this time, so I am logging this a 100% sporadic E. I even went as far as monitoring 97.2 for four hours after the Es event and Rangstrup did not surface once. This beats my shortest sporadic E distance record by 23 km. Rangstrup is 617 km. This overtakes my previous record of 640 km from 98.7 NDR Kultur from Hannover Hemmingen (nds) on June 21st 2015.
