I had a similar experience Friday just before the CQWW SSB got started. I heard echoes on two New England stations that indicated a long-path/short-path combined signal on the stations. Saturday, during the contest, I had contact on 10-meters with a Hong Kong station where he was S3 on short-path when I first heard him. He mentioned he was pointing his beam to the U.S. via long-path. I turned the beam 180 degrees and completed the QSO with him at S9.

Was I hearing long path and short path (technically both, hehe)?I seem to remember this back in 2013/4 during the last cycle of good DX. This was last Wednesday on a PAR end fed wire in a coconut tree and an 817. This was on 20 meters. Remember, it was only some signals. lol, so it wasn't the radio. 73 Thanks, KF5ONT________________________________________________ Brazos Valley Amateur Radio Club
