Topband: Effect of trees- tree appreciation

[Mike Waters]

I'm not sure if there's a tutorial, but let me see if we call help a
little. Since I probably have cookies saved from using them, you may
experience something a little different.

Click http://www.reversebeacon.net/main.php.

NO, better yet, try http://www.reversebeacon.net/dxsd1/ instead . You
should see some radio buttons and drop-down lists in two columns.

1. Leave the first column, "DX Station" alone. It should have the top radio
button checked and the drop-down list to its right should say "any".

2. Under the second column, "DE Station", click the last (4th) radio
button, and to its right, click the drop down list and chose "NA - North
America".

3. To the right of those under "Band", check the 160m checkbox.

4. Click the Proceed button on the left. (After I do that, the URL
http://www.reversebeacon.net/dxsd1/dxsd1.php?f=8014 appears. )

There are other options, such as the Ready Made Filters in the blue box
there to the right. I forget how those work, but try those too.

You can zoom in on the map, choose grayline display, and other options.

Try calling CQ on CW on a clear freq. and see how strong you are. :-)

See if you can copy the stations there.
