The only state I need for phone 6BWAS is Vermont on 160 phone.
Worked it many times on CW.  I'll be on for
CQWW160 phone beaming Vermont, if I can find a
run frequency.  The band doesn't usually open up to VT
from the left coast until at least 10PM VT time,
especially that late into the season.

The CQ 160M CW and SSB contests coming up might be a good bet.  I
worked, and confirmed on LOTW, WAS in one CW contest a few years back.

Good luck!

Yep, I’m planning on it. I also participated in the recent ARRL 160
contest, but never heard anyone from those five states. I had needed
NC and got that on, confirmed shortly after the contest. Usually, if I
can hear ‘em, I can work ‘em. But if they aren’t on, I’m hosed!

Tnx, Jim

Get on for NAQP this weekend (saturday night) and I'm sure you can
work most of those states. Exchange is simple, just name and state.

Hi folks - I’m trying to complete my WAS on 160 and need a confirmed
QSO with anyone in the following five states: LA, MS, SC, WV, VT.

I run an Elecraft K3/KPA500 into an Inverted L with a K2AV-designed
FCP under it. Got a limited amount of real estate so I can’t lay out
much in the line of radials of receiving antennas, but… I have been
able to easily work into the Canadian Maritime provinces (plus the
remainder of the New England states), so I know I can hit those
states. Problem is that I’ve never heard anyone from there on Top Band!

So - if you can get on some evening while we have relatively good
propagation, I’d love to arrange a schedule. If we connect I can QSL
via LoTW or direct with my card and an SASE.

Thanks,
