These are definitely worthwhile targets in the east during these quiet conditions, Bill. 160m amateurs in the northeast are working Japanese contacts, for example. And, while working on Cape Cod last month, I also noted the 747 carrier in the presunrise period after the Europeans were in daylight. This was using an ALA100 with a 16m circumference loop, so as you say, a better antenna might have brought something out. best wishes, Nick ***************************** Nick Hall-Patch Victoria, BC Canada _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected]
