I had heard that VP8 was coming in on 6m earlier in the week, but I missed the excitement. This Sunday afternoon I did manage to catch them, but it didn't seem like many folks were actually completing with them:
More good signs....

New Caledonia on 6m Heard
Sunday afternoon WW1L posted that he was hearing FK8CP, so I swung the antenna around to listen direct. I actually managed to get a single decode!
That's roughly 14,265km or 8,800 miles on 6m! I would have to assume this is F2 or a mix of F2 and some other propagation.
This is going to be a good year for 6m I tihnk....

February 6M opening
We had a brief EU opening on February 21st. From my location I was hearing some western european stations and some Caribbean stations (Suriname and Dominican Republic). Some of the other guys appear to have worked into the Indian Ocean (Rodriguez?), and I saw a local station calling a 9K2. There was talk that is could have been F2.
I only ended up with a few EAs and PZ5RA (who I've worked before) in the logbook. Hopefully this is a sign of good things to come this season. I had a dreadful DX season last year.
