Topband: FP
I've been listening but not able to hear FP on 160m the past few nights. Not seeing any westerly spots to see best time, so wondering if anyone West of the Mississippi has worked Or heard them 160m. If so when was the good time? Not so much up to midnight here in Kansas when I have been trying . Would be new so any info's please and Thanks. ___ UR RST IS ... ... ..9 QSB QSB - hw? BK
Re: Topband: FP
I use several 900 foot reversible made from WD-1A and found this as a good solution and a good price for wire itself. I use the KD9SV boxes that Gary designed. My big problem is that I have huge 2500 foot roll where the cardboard core disintegrated leaving a mass of tangled WD-1. Maybe someone has an idea on the best way to unravel this without cutting it?

BK I worked the FP/VA2WA on 80 cw lastnight and then tried to work him on 1824 later but he was not audible here with a 900 foot Beverage heading NNE. Don't know if they were running low power or may have changed their TX antenna but earlier this month they were very strong on 160 and now they can not be heard.

Re: Topband: FP
I worked the FP at 0155 last night on 160 M with a good signal here although there was deep slow qsb. He had a good signal for quite a while afterward. I heard him work a couple stations in Texas shortly after I did. His signal was also very good on 80 M. Dick, K4IQJ ..
