And hopefully a little SSB if the give us alert by the cluster or their pilot
ops. I for one think the west coast stands a decent change of that working

Guy (K2AV) said "Methinks hamdom underestimates 160 propagation in the
summertime.", and I totally agree with him.
For the past 11 months I have been running a daily early morning experiment
on 160 meters CW trying to copy a specific station in South America running
500 watts (4700 mile path,
Hi Don et al,
Just an example:
Late last night I made a brief CQ DX and got a prompt answer from Jeff, in
TZ4 (Mali) Nobody else to be heard on 160.
Let us see if the upcoming Stew Perry will bring some more 160 activity.

Maybe CW till band worked dry. Hope so.
73, definitely working all the DC I can hear.

I have no doubt they will be successful on the lowbands with what should
hopefully be an ambient free RF zone- Despite the short windows, and my guess
30M will be their best band, if you want to call that a lowband. I do- The
greyline characteristics in crap conditions are well proven. I only
There is a fine line between "know" and "believe". Like detuning your tower,
directivity increase signal to noise ratio. You need RX antenna on 160m in
a quiet place. Antenna over salt water is one of those things people know
but don't believe. I am 100% sure and I believe that the signal from
According to the latest Clublog DX Report, 20-meters is still the money band;
34% of all reported contacts made during the last 7 days were on 20. Of those,
41% were DX contacts. Second was 40-meters. Thirty meters was actually fourth,
behind 6-meters.

Jim,
We will be on FT8 extensively on many bands, but only when we can operate
concurrently with CW (and SSB). We will only have one 160 m antenna. Also,
the CW and FT8 frequencies are very close to each other on this band and it
may be hard to allow concurrent (interference free) operation.
