But I am encouraging my 2nd harmonic to get into ham radio, and become a 
contester too...
I thought we wanted new young blood in the hobby...*G* 
I know.. outta context, and all that... but I couldn't pass it up.. just too 
fun...
Shoot, I already have him looking at the Fox hunts, and contest results...and 
he spelled
his name the other day in cw... not bad for 7.
  Now on the technical side of things... and the barn door is wide open from 
the information that we have to work with here... but the actual situation may 
very well be a poor rx... it isn't likely that there are that many poor tx that 
this one fellow can hear the 2nd harmonics of 160 on his 75 mtr rx. Unless he 
is very close to a high powered 160 contester, in which case.... one would have 
to put tongue firmly in cheek.... and say something like-
Gee... that's why we have 10 meters..... 
leave it there.... 
just leave it there....
 
don't go there....
