Tnx very much for the 160m QSO George & group. I could not get over how gosh darn quiet topband was this morning. Like 20m ! You were about 90% copy for about an hour before my SR til SR. 73 es safe

I made a couple vy incomplete less than studio quality handheld cellphone recordings of E51D on TB this morning a while after we ourselves worked. I think the K3TN QSO was the only complete end-to-en

Tree and everyone: Sadly, cheating has "always been a thing".(I'd like to think a little "less so" in ham radio)_I love this hobby and the great people I've met because of it. Back in the early 1990'

Sad news. I did not know the Battle Creek guys personally like many of you, but when we were searching in 1996 for antennas to use at CY0AA Sable Island, the Battlc Creek Special was mentioned. These

I have wire 4-squares on 80, 40 & 20. A 2-el on 160m <currently just 1-el> and a VDA looking 4-square on 15m. (still looking for a 10m 4-sq Comtek system someone might have collecting dust) My 80m an

You pretty much hit a lot of my same sentiments Dave. I have the same observations re: 6m. I used to be on SIX almost daily for 30+ yrs but FT-8 has taken 99% of 6m CW and SSB activity completely awa

Jim, I applaud your tireless ability to make your point about the terrible noise (especially in California?), but by that same rationale, I should give up on 160m CW and never dream of working a JA,

A note from the peanut gallery. This is topband@CONTEST.com I am on a postage stamp lot and the house & garage occupy approximately the middle one third. The frontage is not usable for antenna system

Hey Rick, Thanks for reminding me of his KH6 call. Yes, I have used a number of mobile antennas on top band. Each with their own quirks. The last time I was QRV on Top Band from the car (I think) was

Years ago now, but I worked Jon a few times when he was mobile on his way to work and I seem to recall him being a pretty darn good signal at 1000kms away from here. I think he may have even worked J

George is correct. I worked TX5S on 80m CW roughly this time yesterday..maybe + 1.5 - 2 hours..and well before SS on Clipperton. EY8MM was the (uFB) op. He sure wasn't vy loud, but was working them a

I knew it was all over many years ago when I worked a 20dB/9 Italian station around Sunrise here in one 160m contest. (1pm in Italy) I have never applied for DXCC. I know what I worked and keep track

A great accomplishment that took 2 die-hard real TopBand men to make happen. I always enjoyed the short writeup. Good job both Steve/Ross. A slight aside, but when I first worked a 9M on 160m there w
