Topband: Musings on multiple 160m QSOs

2020-01-12 Thread W7RH
Regarding multiple QSO's I too am guilty. I will say that the contacts are short and have signal report. This is not to say I am not respectful of the new guys trying to work a new one. Furthermore, I spot DX frequently and post links to audio files collected on the reflector because I can

Well you know I have said this several times before Steve . . so thanks for clarifying. Like you, EVERY DX contact is a thrill to me (even after 50 years on the band), no matter how many times I may have worked that station before. I actually think that MOST 160m DX-ers agree. After all, it

OK Steve, I will call you every morning when I hear your signal (... tnx for this hint! I really feel strange to work a station again in the same mode on the same band - therefore I love contesting.) Additionally I will try to join the famous "VE6WZ-Top-25" List. Now I go downstairs for some

Speaking of multiple QSOs with the same stations on 160m…. please do not hesitate to call me if you hear me on Topband no matter how many QSOs we have had! I am a 160m QSO collector. The more the better. I don't get bored working the same guys over-and-over-and-over on TB. Each opening is a
