Sadly there's ZERO chance of a contact with Europe on Top Band . . .
Our Sunrise here in Britain is currently THREE HOURS before their Sunset
(04.45Z) !

In the Southern Hemisphere, we work MOST of our DX during the Summertime!
However, this DXpedition is on during our Winter, so for a change we have an

I have Baker on some bands so this isn't a must have for me, although a 160 QSO
would be nice. If it was, however, at my age (pushing 77) waiting a few years
might not be an option.
I wish SV/A would be deleted, it is after all just Greece, and for some French
ops to activate FR/G. You have

Hi George,
With the oustanding signals you have been producing on top band I hope we will

Hi Gang,
In late June my sunrise is 02:44 UTC, sunset is 18:35 UTC. It will be
impossible from Europe not only on 160, but also 80 and even 40. Mayb

Rob,
You are right about the timing not being good, but it is way too late now to
postpone the operation. Most of us are already in the Pacific or on a plane,

Back in the 90's - KH6ND was active from Kure Is on 160M during July. He was
very workable in North America in the early morning hours before NA sunrise. I
