144 Es June 8. 2002
 


First opening started at 07:49 UT from YU to SP. Meanwhile YO, LZ and UT were working into OD5 and 4X4. Later MUF was always close to 144 MHz but the main cloud was moving west. That brought EI and G, GW in the game when CN2DX was suddenly there and later EA8 into G, GW, EI and F. MUF reached far beyond 200 MHz when EA1 from IN53 was 59+++ into EA3 and EA5, strange! Later several new clouds formed all over Europe leading into many openings from EA to I8 and SV3, G into SV and SV9 and so on. Involved DXCC today:
G, GW, EI, EA, EA6, EA8, EA9, CT, F, PA0, ON, LX, DL, SP, OK, OM, OE, HB9, HG, S5, 9A, YU, YO, LZ, UT, OD5(!), I, IT9, 9H1, SV, SV9 and a bunch of telephones from 7X, 3V9, and 5A on 144....

Very short opening here (<1min.) Was the only station I heard. Seems it was a very fast moving small es-cloud

The "afternoon opening" was very short. It happened 3 times for about 1-2 minutes, that CT stations were audible. Twice, I heard CT1EPS very weak, and once there was CT1HZE very loud (59+20dB). Probably, those short openings were "triggered" by meteors.

A new sporadic-E opening but unfortunately I only worked the first minutes because I had to leave home :-(( I don't know how longer it last.

  You have missed out a few of the reasons that can also trigger 144Mhz Sporadic E:
1. Switching off the amplifier.
2. Going for a meal break.
3. Going to work.
4. Working on the antenna system.
5. Going on Holiday.
Similarly these things can stop SpE:
1. Taking a day's holiday to listen for SpE.
2. Sitting in the shack all day on a nice sunny warm day.
3. Switching the amplifier on.
