Hello Topbanders, Finally 160 is coming alive. Last night (Sep 25) I was operating as E51D/MM, at anchor in Suwarrow Atoll, North Cook Islands (AH86). Starting at 0925 the only signal on the band was

Bob, Looking forward to working you on TB. Not sure about the frequency yet, Will have to see the QRN. I have 6 m gear but we will not have the time to set up for 6 m. Anyway, E51WL lives on Penhryn

TopBand is certainly open. From E51D I worked EA8 last night shortly after my SS. Later, from about 10:00 Z most NA signals were S6 to S7, including East Coast stations. Felt more like 80 m, but slow

Steve, QSB: I did not experience much QSB, but that is hard to tell with callers who are on for 20 seconds at a time. Almost all the callers had solid signals here. After about 10:30 Z noise crashes

Thank you Wes, but it wasn't my "ears" (which are not what they are used to be) but a new RX antenna and a very low noise pre-amplifier, that we installed yesterday morning. Your signal was an easy c

Hi Patrick, This is a custom unit that I built. While this version would be very difficult to reproduce, there are some commercial pre-amps that come close. Specifically, the DX engineering SV-BF-99X

N4IS went beyond "reasonable" to build a very effective receiving system for 160 meters. Over time he has perfected the Waller Flag, which has an RDF of 12 dB. This is an extremely difficult antenna
