Just worked my 1st Polish station with VarAC. DX of any kind here on the west coast is hard to come by for me. The QSO was on 10. I was running 100W to a vertical.

Congratulations! It's all about timing from the West Coast. Gray line is your best time. I just was chatting with a French station that he stated out with a +1 SNR ended up at -19 SNR.
You're right. The grey line usually works well in the evening too. I've had luck working South America, Africa (once) and several European countries. This DX was often made doing FT4/FT8, and occasionally JS8 with JS8CALL. My biggest problem is that I'm retired, and seldom are in the shack before 9 AM PDT, which is past grey line (GRIN).
