80 is definitely out for DX except on rare occasions, 40 is too crowded with international AM commercial broadcasts. 20 is good if you've got lots of power to make yourself heard. Like I said before, I really liked 15 and 18M when I was active.

Hey, guys, if I wanted to be able to talk "reliably" to Istanbul and the Balkans, what would be my choice of amateur bands?
