Topband: Low Dipoles

[KØKX Mark]

Please----Nebraska would be too easy as the propagation is quite good there.
Try central Minnesota and trust me the only EU stations worked will be just
a few in mid to late December.
This is 50 years of me operating from Minnesota speaking with a rather good
160 transmit antenna.
Thank you Rob for the reality check.

Merry Xmas
