Hi Ralph and gang. Being relatively new to 160 (only my second year on the
band), I have a question. I've been hearing regular stateside ragchews on
1812, 1816, 1832, and 1840 lsb. I thought the following was common in the
states:
1800-1820 = Stateside CW ragchewing
1820-1830 = CW DX windows
1830-1840 = CW and Phone DX window
1840-1850 = Phone DX window
1850-1880 = Stateside SSB
1880-1900 = AM
1910-?? JA window
I'm sure I'm way off. Could someone more experienced post a crude plan for
us "greenhorns". I just thought the phone operations I mentioned in the
first part of the post was in the wrong place. Maybe not...
