I am curious too...I just worked them from the car on 10m CW an hour ago.
(I am in FN66, NB, Canada--NE of Maine, USA) running just 50w to a vert !
OK, now for 160m content....VE9HF reports he worked them at sunrise here.
He has a nice hilltop location,legal limit but just using a small/low
inverted L and 5 onground radials.
(he was very pleased)
Sadly, I don't have a "real" 160m antenna up as I am rebuilding everything.

Subject: Topband: 3D2R on 160
Would anyone know the type of 160 antenna being used by 3D2R on Rotuma?
They have been very weak in MN while T32C continues to be S7-9 with a 70ft
top loaded vertical well before SR
We know distance is a factor. I'm curious about the antenna ?????
Thanks!
