Hi,
I continue to find evidence that 160 meters is NOT closed for the
season. Most of the evidence is to be found way up in the phone band. I
wondered if those guys were running California kilowatts or something
but in some of the QSOs they mentioned their power output in the 100
watt area. I have occasionally heard some CW calls for DX but those are
scarce. Apparently the CW hams are just plain absent..doing soemthing
else for the 'closed' season.
This morning I set up a receiver to slowly scan (troll) from 1800 to
1830 kc...continuously. While I am working around here in and out of the
shack I will hopefully hear anybody in range if there is activity.
73,
Bill KU8H
