Friends in Radioland,
 
Earlier, I cited the fact that 160 DXing generally improves  when the flux 
of galactic cosmic rays (GCR) DECREASES.  This is shown on  reviewing 
distance L vs GCR records in 160 meter logs
 
In addition, statistical analysis of DX contacts by SP5EWY  shows that 
propagation from Poland to North America is slightly better than  from W7LR    
in Montana to Europe,   This is probably  due to the rich soil on the banks 
of the Mississippi River.
 
On the other hand, propagation from ZS4TX to North America,  largely over 
sea water, is better than from ZS4TX to Scandinavia, over jungle,  dry desert 
and the rocky Alps.
 
It is hoped at these analyses may be extended to East and West  of JAPAN 
but suitable logs for 2003 to 2007 have not been obtained.  If  you can 
suggest a candidate, please contact me at Nm_7m at aol,com_ (mailto:Nm7m at aol,com) .
