Hello,
My name is Michel, callsign EA8AFJ.
I want to participate in the 160 M SSB contest this weekend,
but I would like to receive any infos about the band plans used in
this band. I know that some freq are reseverd to DX stations, I have
read an article about it in a review, but I,am unable to find
this article .
So I would like to receive some help about it.
In which freq is the best to operate.
Thanks a lot in advance.
73, Michel, EA8AFJ....See you in the contest...maybe.
