Not bad but definitely not great either. Nobody (USA SOHP/160) has broken 100k so far in CQWWCW for this cycle low. There were 6 consecutive years over 100k (2005-2010) for the previous cycle low. K9

Could be that good conditions are just ahead but they better hurry up. The 6 years of >100k scores in the last cycle versus none so far in this one seems to indicate something is very different about

Hi to everyone, (GCRs) result in more electrons down low in the ionosphere (from collisional ionization) - where ionospheric absorption occurs. So one would think that the more cosmic rays, the more

I attribute the decline in participation to the raising noise floor and the aging population of ham radio operators. I been operating 160 since I moved to the present location form a city lot in 1998

Mark, I hear you. As an engineer I basically worked a sedentary office job during the day and operated at night. When I retired I figured I would have more time but I make it a point of being active.
