As in ARRL literature, even as short antenna in  a great ground plane  can be very effective.  The Baker Island  group has  indicated that  they were going to use the salt water..

Back in the 90's -  KH6ND was active from Kure Is on 160M during July. He was very workable in North America in the early morning hours before NA sunrise. I logged Mike with 100 w and my balloon supported vertical. QRN from thunderstorms may be lower at that time.


Europe may well have some short windows of opportunity as well.


A safe trip to the KH1/KH7ZZ team.  - Jon N0JK
