I've had QSOs via MS (meteor scatter) on the low end of 2 meters. But MS on 160 meters?
What was your antenna, and what direction were you listening? At https://sites.google.com/site/sjwamback/highfrequencymeteorscatterradioastronomy they state: "It is the contention and major hypothesis of the authors of this page that Meteor Scatter Radio Wave Propagation occurs at frequencies that are much lower than previously thought and that radio signal propagation is even MORE enhanced in the HF (High Frequency) and possibly even LOWER frequency portions of the Electromagnetic Spectrum." I didn't see what sort of antenna (or acreage) is needed for that. There's also a 1983 QST article at http://www.arrl.org/files/file/History/History%20of%20QST%20Volume%201%20-%20Technology/QS04-53-Peterson_opt.pdf Has any amateur ever observed this on (for example) AM BCB carriers or aircraft beacons, etc. below 2 MHz? ;-) 73, Mike www.w0btu.com On Sun, Jun 21, 2015 at 10:04 AM, N7DF via Topband <[email protected]> wrote: > ...
