propagation reset

After some weeks of promising  28MHz openings.  All seems to be back to the start now. Just last Sunday morning showed VK7AB 11x ! decoding me  and VK2KRR 1x  decoded at 10meters.  The week before and after almost no signals at all. Now i have my 7ele LFA yagi for 6M in the mast again. had to take down the 10/15/20/40 dipole  to keep it easy. So I am back at 50MHz.  The LFA did show high SWR though. Last year when I first had this beam it was a perfect match. Then end of season i took it down stored it in house. Could not tune the loop for a better match. Something is changed. 50MHz had some ES openings but i did not work anything yet. I had WSPR running on it. YO6DN was the best distance sofar. Now i can be QRV during working days... The WSPR activity is low however   some decodes from F G I PA  80m  is still good at Sunset  yesterday VK7DIK 1x and tonight again around 19UTC  2011-05-26 18:56   PA0O   3.594170   -28   0   JO33hg   5   VK7DIK   QE28sf   16731
