Robin,that may have been ZL2BT (also SK) and also whose name was also BOB (what is it about these guy's called BOB and DX on Top Band, i.e. N7UA and many others), he was very big on 160 ssb in the early 1980's when I got interested in DX'ing.

Cheers, from Ron.

does anyone remember the sked between ZL and W6KIP(??) back in the 60s?  I can not recall any details, but I do remember hearing Alex (W6KIP???) every night during my very early years on top band.  That's when the band was severely limited in frequencies and power & we got to listen to LORAN.  We were limited to a night time power of 200 watts Plate Input.

This reminds me of the QSOs VE7SB (I think I remember that call right) and
VK3ZL did.

Tree..it was Bob, VE7BS in Pemberton. I would often listen during their summer dawn chats using my ICF-2010 Sony and built-in ferrite loop. Often the VKs were good copy here on the kitchen table! I think condx must have been much different back then.
