Unfortunatly that's right, but not for all.
Before going on Internet, I always check 1802.5 to see if W1AW is coming
through...and if I hear it, I move up and give some CQ's, otherwise I go
back in the sack.
For sure I can confirm that this season has been the worst one in over 20
years of Topband summer DXing. Not even any activity with Africa or South
America !
