FYI, a Russian friend told me Kumar is running 70 watts to a 10m vertical.
We may need some great
conditions to hear him, but anything is possible on 160.

Mick FYI Kumar has been QRV on 160m for quite a while he actually called us
(M2D) 2145z Jan 25 2003 CQ160CW.
This season I wkd him in the melee 10Feb 2004 2335z despite the so called
"Euro Zoo" he had a very solid signal into UK (my 90ft Top Load Vertical),
and subsequently ran across him  13th 0020z 0n 80m CW with a very strong
signal (my 4-sq).

I have just made plans to ship a copy of ON4UN's Low Band DX'ing since he
commented he was trying to gets to grips with LF Prop and Antennas. I
understand he and Nodir (EY8MM) are in regular contact/discussion on LF.
