Hi ALL, hope u still remember me sorry if I am being off topic, anyone knows if John (VE1ZZ)has 
email, i would like to get in contact with him!
I have been calling on the band lately but somehow only two friends can hear me, both Johns HI, 
VE1ZZ has been a great company sisnce I started my activitie on 160, he is always there to confort 
me when I call over half an hour with no repplys, he shows up to cheer me up hi! boy I wonder what 
system he has, we can even "dare" to "ragchew" on top band , sometimes he is 20 to 30 over S9, 
amasing, he is practly the only one that eliminates all my noise!
Also John VE1ZJ another one that is there many times!!
I know the band is in a bad shape lately but I always listen a few signals below 1830 wich is where 
the band starts in my side, so I give it a try!

Anyone knows if there is anybody in Alaska active on 160m, I need Haway and Alaska on 160m I am 
making some changes on my modest 160m system, I am going to try a quarter wave dipole, its about 38 
meters each side, hopefuly I will keep active this winter I am thinking on trying the CQ contest!
Bye the way thank you ALL that called me last ARRL 160, I got first place DX, was a surprise, I got 
the Award also, thanks to ARRL its my first Contest Award its on the wall already hi, but the 
chalange I proposed to my self was the WAS only in CW on 160m I know alaska and hawai will be 
something but I have faith hi!

What about Bob Eldrige, Bob u are still around? I sure hope so!

Well I apologise again if this is out of topic but I know you (top'ers) are here :-)

THANKS
