I just noticed that on solarham, I'm glad you posted the numbers. I wonder how good conditions will get in the future.

I hate to be a Debbie Downer, but that reading was taken during today's X2.2 solar flare. It's "contaminated". The previous measurement at 1800 UTC was 165.

The X2.2 Flare from AR3229 is just rotating into view, so may be a source of entertainment as it transits the visible disk over the next few weeks!

10,12 & 15 meter FT4/FT8 has been way hot over the last month or two.
I've worked JA's nightly on 15 meter FT4 with 40 watts and an end-fed
wire at 01:00z (6:00pm EST) every day. EU all day long on 10 & 12 meters.

6 meter FT8 has been open via F-layer propagation at least twice in the past month.

The band conditions this past weekend have been some of the best (if not the best) in my almost 40 years HAM career.
10m was unbelievable, 15m the same. Worked 2300 DX contacts in the ARRL DX CW test with a HEX Beam and dipoles. A weekend to remember... hopefully the trend of good propagation continues in the next few years.
