Topband: 160 WAS

[Josep]

....And time brings things in place, slowly, with lots of patience, but they
finally arrive. After some years working 160m, I have tryed to get as many
US states as possible, to get 160 WAS, but it´s tough..!One of the states I
have worked, but couldn´t get a confirmation was MS, back in 97. Well, I did
the ARRL DX CW some weeks ago and I could catch 2 stations from MS, and one
from AL, a state that I never heard. Some days ago I could work another MS
station. Today I have received cards from them, (tnx W5XX, N5GH and W4AXL),
so I am proud to have 45 wkd/cfmd states on 160m. Still need some to
complete the picture, they are ND, SD, WY, ID and HI, so keep on trying..!
Condx today have been very bad, high QRN level S9 made almost impossible to
pick up any signal, just W0UCE came thru with a 339, very poor.
Hope tomorrow they are better, I will try to be on starting 05z untill sun
rises.
Heard YA8G two days ago, but no chance, propagation looked to favour the
northern latitudes.
Nothing on 5V7C here.
