                           the sign was 10mins always between S2 and S9! - after this frustrating opening, i was going
                           out to wash my motorhome!
      15.jun  1240-1435    again hrd nothing, so i was going outside to work in the garden, because i am not interested
                           on any "Es-Stress".
      16.jun  0845-0910    hrd: UA6MA, RA6DA, RA6BC - wkd RA6HHT (new #) and RN6BN

      19.jun  1444-1539    i dont believe it - my first Es-Opening in 2007!
                           wkd 15 Stations from EA2, (3 hrd), 4, 5, 6, 7
      
      Note:
      The last 3 years was NO gd Es 4 me - and this year is one of my badest years for sporadic easy since 1978!
      The Locator JN77 is a good reflector 4 Es, but not good for some openings 4 myself.
      So, i stop now my "waiting for any Es"

      If i`m at home, and there is a opening = vy nice.
      If i`m at home, and there is no opening (some usual) = vy nice.
      If i`m not at home, and there is a opening = what shalls.

      better i go to play with my grand-childs ... make a tour with my crossbike, or wash and cleaning my motorhome, hi.

      conclusio: good DX via Es - IF i have time, THEN i am QRV - finish.
