It was huge signals coming to Japan from Arabe countries on 17m SSB in May 17 Monday (UTC 12:00-13:00).
For a long time, as for me, it has been impossible to hear DX signals at my home QTH ( but Ant was mono band stick antenna for mobile fixed on balcony).
This Ant has caught DX signals in Monday May 17. They were very strong, huge and clear signals unusually. My radio IC-7000 said these signals were S7-9!!
But it was with incredible big Pile many JA big guns called with enormous power at the same time. It seemed be impossible to make my QSO with these Arabian stations from my shack, running 50W, using a short mobile antenna....hi hi.
Anyway, honestly I was so happy. Because I could receive for the first time the callsign beginning "A" at my shack. And it did mean the HF condition, propagation was becoming better and better. Not bad!! hi hi.
