Yah, I know that Jeff N8II spent a little bit of time
up on 160. I haven't had a chance to talk to him
about it, but it kinda surprised me. In fact, N4RV
and I were talking about 160 during one of my off
times during SS Phone. Neither of us could remember
correctly if 160 was an eligible band for SS, or if it
was an "out of bounds" band as in WAE.
