80 is anything to go by, then he will be FB for any US reflectees who still
need 5B4 ..."

5b4agc is living proof of the existense of one way propagation.

He has been 599 the last few mornings here on 80M cw and despite a
cumulative hour of calling I have not even looked like getting a reply.
Propagation is obviously 2 way into Europe however as he has worked 100s of
those guys.

Would not reccommend that the guys in the States add this one to your
"certain topband new ones" list quite yet. He has to hear you first and
based on 80m form that is not looking likely.
