Mid-afternoon Brazilian signals

I was in the Warrandyte State Park yesterday, at Pound Bend, next to the Yarra, and was impressed with the very solid signals coming down the Brazilian pipeline in the mid-afternoon period on 11 MHz and 9 MHz.

Brazilian propagation into Melbourne is traditionally good following the equinoxes, with the signal path (short path) following the darkness route south from Brazil, over the Antarctic, and thence to here from the south.

This is the summary, with many good long path signals also audible from other regions, during the window 0430-0500, with the Eton E5 and 2 m antenna.
