Bill I think I told you this before but maybe not. JT65 is a weak signal mode
and not low power, run as much as you want. The EME guys are usually
full limit with gain antennas. For the record I did the 160m JT65 WAS with
20 watts or less and several of the DX guys that got in there were 400 watts+
on their end. I played around with a KL7 station last year and he still had
perfect
copy when I was down to 5 watts, couldn't get any lower with what I had.
If you want to try high power then one end or the other of the JT65 area will
keep you out of trouble....mostly :)

I would like to see some high power JT65 on 160 meters this winter. Perhaps
a small segment of the band should be set aside for that? Like PSK, JT65 is
normally operated with the receiver bandwidth as wide as possible and HP is
normally not welcome. How about the very bottom end, 1800-1803? Not much
going on there. Might be fun to see what JT65 can really do.
