Topband: Bad 160m Conditions

[Roger Kennedy]

Thanks for that Bob (I must confess that I've never really been into
understanding all the technical factors that affect propagation) 

But the thing is that I've been DX-ing on 160m for over 50 years . . . and
never known it be so poor for so long, at any point in the Solar Cycle. (in
fact I don't even recall the Cycle affecting Top Band very much, unlike the
higher bands)
