Default WWV and WWVH on 20MHz

Who knows. There is an unusual high over the Great Basin.

Radio Havana was coming in s+30 around 9pm PST. I've never seen it that
strong. It was their 6mhz frequency.

I haven't picked up either WWV or WWVH for the last few months on 20MHz
but I was able to do it today.

At around 18:00 UTC today, which is 10:00 AM my time.

20 MHz WWV weak and WWVH not at all.
15 MHz WWV strong and WWVH a little weaker.
10 MHz WWV and WWVH strong.
5 MHz WWV weak and WWVH not at all.

I don't understand the 5 MHz result as I would expect that WWVH would
have been stronger at that time then WWV.


Now I feel like someone is playing a joke on me it's 04:40 UTC or 8:40
PM my time and the sun set hours ago and I'm still getting WWV on 20
MHz. It's much stronger on 15, 10 and 5 MHz. Usually around this time on
in the evening 2.5 and 5 MHz are best but right now 10 MHz is the best.
I never gotten WWV on 20 MHz after dark before.
