David, Tropical band DXing is not something I am very familiar with. Having lived in Northern California and Alaska, tropical band DX wasn't really possible there. SO... I try to learn as I go, but also combine what I do know about DXing But also radio broadcasting as a whole (as air talent/program director) to make an educated guess...... sometimes I'm right, sometimes I'm in the right field and sometimes I'm wrong... but making an educated guess after studying a little, is part of the fun as is learning
