I completely agree from the perspective of penalties. Lately I have
taken to purposely not working stations where there is the possibility
of working the wrong station or miscopy. The penalty imposed by
organizers is greater than the missed Q. I ascribe to the system Tree
suggests:
CQ K6XT
And southwest Colorado

somewhere on 1820. There should
be, maybe is, a Worldwide freqs to avoid on 160 list for
DXpeditioners, starting with even 10's. USA just one of many affected.

Like Tom I neither endorse nor object to digi activity, except as it
jams existing CW. I share his opinion that the frequency choice for digi
activity could not have been more poorly chosen.

Success
is,
IMHO, specious. Obviously there isn't likely to be much activity til the
band opens somewhere and a DX station shows up.
PS: Lest anyone think I'm unduly biased, while not a regular I have used
digital modes including JT65 on 160 and other bands.

But at least you EC guys are working them. We black holers have yet to
hear more than a peep on 40, and nil on 80/160.

Try 160 at 2300Z? What it will take is a daily dedication to the low
bands (80 and 40 needed here as well) for as long as its dark in 3C0.
2300Z is still 90 minutes to sunset in CO and 3 hours on the west coast.
Bearing in mind there's just two ops, that would mean a sharply
decreased emphasis
. Now it seems
more like a balancing act between my personal goals, finance, and the
electronic tools.
Gotta run now. TU2T and 6O0N cards just came in the mail...

This isn't as far fetched as it seems. Folks on 30m, which is only 50kHz
wide [1], manage to rub along quite nicely:

thought they were one and the same. Whatsay y'all?
PS: Boo Hoo I only heard TN2T on TB once and nowhere near effective
enough to work them. But did score on 80. No matter, except for 40 all
new bandmodes.

It most likely also means whatever Jimmy is connecting the radials to is
probably not the actual antenna. This result just cannot be, if the
radial system were connected to the radiating element.
