Re: Topband: Topband Conditions

I was qrv between 0400z and 0500z. Heard and worked K0RF, W0FLS (it was me Rick, hi) and AA0RS. Until 0500 basically all signals were fading out. 73, Harry, DH1NBE Am 05.01.2021 um 19:43 schrieb Tom Boucher: Just to add to the discussion on band conditions, Mike W4EF near LA was romping into

Topband: Topband Conditions

Just to add to the discussion on band conditions, Mike W4EF near LA was romping into UK this morning, Tuesday at 0800 sunrise, peaking 8 to 9 and Larry N7DD was well over the 9. Apart from those two, the band was devoid of CW during the short time I was on. 73, Tom G3OLB _

A couple of hours this morning on 160 CW yielded FR4NT, VE6WZ and ZL3IX as well as some other old friends, so considering the high static levels, conditions are pretty good! 73, Tom G3OLB _ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband

2011 is certainly down from previous years.just for interest here is a table of first time DXCC worked since 1974 for my current total of 178. Bumper years for me 85-86. Antenna at the time was a shunt fed 40ft tower with 203BA and three folded shunt feed wires plus a top loading wire.

Topband: Topband Conditions: CONSOLATION

Good Day All, While the current doldrums on 160-meters have been more than a bit of a drag therein of late, it's certainly been a boon to creating interest in the re-discovery of other bands... Case in point: 40-meters CW. I haven't been a regular on 7-MHz for several years now, but was
