Hello Top Banders,
I was surprised to see the recent article about the Waller Flag Antenna.
Carlos' stations worked in the summer is quite impressive. Heck I thought the
band was closed, maybe for some but guess not for Carlos. Maybe it's being
close to the ocean and the salt water..
What is the secret that Carlos has that he can hear this DX on Top Band and
the others have reported working these stations. Pretty impressive for Summer
condition on 160 meters..
After reading Carlos' article and then going to his web site an interesting
thought came to mind. How do you rotate a Beverage antenna? Guess you drink
the beverage and rotate the BIG Waller Flag towards Africa.... hi hi

Why is it that some people still think 160M is dead in the summer ???
The DX is there year round ! There's just more days with lots of QRN. If
you give up on TopBand in the summertime, you're missing out on some nice
surprises.
