Lots of stations active this past week. I’ve worked a few Europeans and on SSB too to prepare for the King of Spain SSB contest 12:00 UTC Saturday to 12:00 UTC Sunday. 
Most sought after DX 4U1A (United Nations, Austria), KL0R (Alaska), RW0AR, Russia, OY1CT (Faroe Islands) and RM8W/M. Take a look at this guy’s QRZ page for an antenna farm. Mike, WB8VLC , worked E51BQ FS4WBS and 5P1J heard him.
He writes, "From Salem, Oregon: while in a QSO with E51BQ at +12 on ft8, South Cook islands on 28074 ft8, on June 18-2020, during perfect gray line I was spotted by Denmark, 5P1J at -12 June 11th FS4WBS was in for an hour with a solid ft8 qso with sigs +14.
In Oregon 29.6 fm has been open from June 17 to June 20 every morning with WA4PXV in North Carolina in around 15:00 UTC each morning here in Salem with s9+ sigs.”
Nice one Mike. Inga, YL3IM , says, "There was a great 10m propagation over Latvia on June 17th: it took me just a half hour to work 14 stations from Russia, GB and Western Europe using my mobile setup with a simple vertical antenna.”
Nice one from Latvia and a call sign that matches her name.

On the summer solstice, a midnight display of noctilucent clouds (NLCs) startled sky watchers in London, who could see tendrils of frosted meteor smoke glowing through the city's urban lights. The outbreak over London is a sign that even more intense NLCs are on the way. Indeed, they have already spread to multiple states in the USA including Washington, Oregon, and Idaho. Footy is back, Arsenal have lost twice and Spurs are doing OK. Liverpool march on. Stoke City drew 1- 1, with a 90th minute goal against Reading. Middlesbro’ this Saturday. I shall watch the match streamed as I participate in the King of Spain’s SSB contest. Now you can help Tony to compile his ten-metre report.
Tell him about any stations you've heard on the 10-metre band in your part of the world, or tell him if you've also found the band to be dead.
Use the form in the pop-up window to record the details of any stations that you have heard during this week.
