Hi Charles:
Please don't give up just because someone who probably has never operated
with strong noise, make some unnecessary
remarks.
When Merv, K9FD and I were at BY1QH in January 1998 we had the same
conditions that you are operating under.
We had the same comments made about us. S9 + 20dB noise was on 160 and very
strong commercial stations on 80
meters.
Only 3 stations east of the Mississippi made it in the log on 160, N4CC,
K9YY and WB9Z.
Please don't give up, I need S9 on topband. I also have a S9 to 10dB over 9
on 160.
There are many countries I could have worked but they were not readable. No
computer assist here.
I have managed 165 confirmed on 160. I do check the band almost every night
and hear persons working
DX that I can't hear a peep from.
73 and keep up the GOOD work.
