Fellow top-banders Propagation on 160m is always good. The MUF is always well above 1.8 MHz, so the signal always get into your antenna. The key on 160 is how low is your noise! The attenuation is the main factor, if the arriving signal is above noise you can copy it. So,.. you really have work to do at your side.
Perception is a dangerous thing! We only remember the good things, the good times. If you don't take notes every week about propagation you just don't have the complete picture to remember it. Last night, OK1CF was 579. 20 dB above noise floor, Roger you too very strong. Low attenuation equal great conditions. However people don't turn on the radio if some web "podcast it" Conditions is what it is today, now, when you turn on the radio. You can not work DX on the bast, it does not matter. The most important equipment I have in my station is a very comfortable arm chair! 73's JC N4IS _________________ Searchable Archives: http://www.contesting.com/_topband - Topband Reflector
