KL7XX QSL card says QTH as "Deadhorse, Alaska" 71 deg N - 148 West.
He operates from the Prudhoe Bay oilfield.
- Jon N0JK
(de W4ZV)..Since KL7XX is above the Arctic Circle (~67 degrees North),
he is in perpetual darkness now and therefore Topband QSO's are
possible ANY time of day that the other end of the path is in darkness.
-------------------------
Yes indeed, at noon (11-12Z) I have worked KL7 myself and I am
66 degs north, quite common and no mystery, 73, Jim SM2EKM
