I have got a feeling I am either in the air at the
wrong times to hear many of them or that they are just too far away for my
simple setting. Ideas?


Hello Bekir,

That sounds like a great idea you have there. Regarding propagation & which bands to use to talk to a specific part of the world, I recommend that you periodically look at this link:

http://www.dxwatch.com/dxsd.php?f=1298

This is a list of DX spots between Turkey and the US, indicating time and band of stations in these countries hearing/working each other. From the home page (www.dxwatch.com) you can make "filters" for other areas of the world (click on "create your filter"). By checking this list at different times of the day, several days a week, you will get an idea of which band and which time will be best for a given area. There will be variations of course due to solar conditions and many other variables, but it will help give you a rough idea of band-time-area.
