For the record books, and to further the study of 160m propagation, it is interesting to note that last night was NOT exceptional here at ve6wz. In fact, I was at the radio most of the night and only

Hi Steve, Yes, tonight at 0230z I rx'd for 3500.85 carrier and it is there at s-5. I did not rx last night for it. The peak is very noticeable, and the null of the back of the beam is equally clear.
