Liberty-Net---the-power-of-radioby Kevin Strom, WB4AIO

FOR MORE than a week, the ionospheric conditions on 75 meters have been very unstable, with short- and medium-distance skip varying wildly — between better than normal to extremely poor.

These “supertunnels” are quite common, and keep getting rebuilt after they are shut down. But, for some mysterious reason, they get very little press. (24 minutes)
