   Actually, this is sporadic-E.  We're off to a pretty good start this   
   season, I got two new ones in my FM BCB logs (which already contain 1,400   
   stations) and the season's still young.   
      
   10 meters was open for hours yesterday.  And to be on topic(grin) TG9ANF   
   was doing a land-office business.  28.470 if I recall properly.   
      
   These openings do occasionally extend to multihop, and trans-Atlantic DX   
   is quite possible on 10, and even 6.
