I had company, but I came down to the shack and worked ZD7W at 23:15 and quickly followed at 23:29 with F9ARC. Since the ZD7 was a new one for me on 160, I count the evening as a success! I'm also ve

Roger, While this is just my opinion, I look at 160 as a challenge. If I want to rag-chew or just rack up QSOs, I either go up to SSB or switch to 80 or 40 CW. When I'm on 160, I'm looking for a new

If it were easy, the Summer Stew would lose its charm! While working Europe in the Winter is relatively easy for those on the East Coast, I really had to struggle to pull out two DLs and a PA in this

7Q7RU was audible from well before sunset here in Virginia until sunrise in Malawi. Lots of QSB, but copyable on a 700 foot beverage running E/W. 73, Ken - K4XL -- Ken - K4XL BoatAnchor Manual Archiv

If you have your receiver set to give an accurate S meter reading, you are definitely not set up for optimal receiving on top band! Like others, I give a report based on a subjective decision. Works

Roger, I hasten to disagree with you. Conditions, as far as I'm concerned, were quite good last evening on top band. In only a brief period of time I managed over 20 QSOs with Europeans, some with ho
