Hi Guys, Not to sound rude or demeaning, but do you know what I would suggest...? STAY OFF OF 1810-KHz. There's never any DX way down in that part of the band anyway... ~73~ de Eddy VE3CUI - VE3XZ __

Hi Jim, One of my personal pleasures in working the 160-meter contests is the fact that the band is surprisingly open at times that are unexpected... It's fun to work into the mid-West, and as far so
