I can vouch for this observation. During the entire two days of the ARRL 160 Test all traditionally NE stations in Europe were strongest on my NW 160 meter Beverage. My QTH is near Rochester NY , FN13bd. Interesting thing is that all the TPs came in much better on the 60 deg antenna than the 330 degree one!
>>This morning, after I got back home to Alexandria, VA I got the first-of-the-season 'trace' [waterfall mode on a Perseus receiver in 'reverse x-ray' mode] of a TP carrier on 972 ... and that too was using the TA beam of a 4-element Wellbrook phased delta array rather than the 'usual' place I find TPs -- facing North. Interesting propagation. > > Could hear a SM station calling CQ. A good signal, but he was coming in from the NW to mid coast Maine. Very unusual.... Thanks for the sola wind update. > 73 > Bruce > _______________________________________________ Topband reflector - [email protected]
