Church was going until 1700Z, but I was on air by 1715Z-
Hrd AA5AM EM13 on 144.200 CW calling CQ many times, knew something was up,
 kept moving antenna  toward FL or AZ NIL , but to my N/E @ 1716Z  I hrd
N8PUM EN66 MI  on CW  144.200, worked him on SSB as sigs were good enuf-he
peaked 5x7, but up & down. Then 1719Z  N9DG EN53 WI on SSB was in 5x5
144.200. Those were only signals I worked.

I posted on ON4KST  & on W6YX remailer E Mail group @ 1724Z that an E SKIP
opening was in progress. And I saw in my E Mail box at 1526Z there was a
WARNING posted about possible e skip on 144 MHZ.

Looking at ON4KST loger,I see the opening  was going for maybe two hours
prior to my contacts, but I was not home.

I am age 86, Per my log books, I have worked 144 MHZ E SKIP  each year
since 1968, & now I have 2021 E SKIP  144 mhz contacts made for this year.
