Well, it all depends...
Was reading this, and flipped on the K2 to take a look. And... I just
finished working E51JD, Jim on Raratonga, with the K2 putting out a
mighty 10W to the inverted V, 11:57p PST. Also worked a VE in
Vancouver, a good 20-30 over 9 here. (Raratonga was nowhere near as
strong, but he was only running 100W)
The other night though, I didn't hear much of anything the couple of
times I listened. Your (our?) Ionosphere may vary...
I agree about listening, and calling so there's a signal out
there... And, the more "beacon like" modes and services sure help
nowadays. Stumbled across a VK net on 14.183, sounded like a nightly
Aussie version of the HHH net. Things like that could also serve as
"propagation beacons".
