I was on for two hours around VK/ZL sunset, hoping to work stations in that region, without success. Only DX was four JA stations and three in the Caribbean. Conditions also seemed good to the east coast of the US. 73, Jim K9YC (CM87, NorCal) _ Searchable Archives: http://www.contesting.com/_topband - Topband Reflector
Topband: Wednesday CW DX Activity Night
Just your weekly reminder about tomorrow night . . . For any new guys on here, the whole idea is to try and get lots of CW stations on 160m on the same night to work DX . . . rather than just when there's a Contest. And for those who complain about the lack of CW activity these days . . . well if you make the effort to come on the band, there WILL be plenty of activity ! Hope to see you on Top Band tomorrow night. 73 Roger G3YRO _ Searchable Archives: http://www.contesting.com/_topband - Topband Reflector

Re: Topband: Stew Perry Contest
I worked 23 NA and 3 Carribean. Of the 3 Caribbean at least 1 was still copieable 1 hour after my sunrise. When I started for the morning sessions at 03:30 only the Carribeans had a good signal. An hour later it went better, but mostly east coast. Best distance to USA was 15 points, best to the east was 8 points. 73 Henk PA5KT Op 16-3-2021 om 01:17 schreef List Mail: Conditions were terrible here on the weekend.

Conditions seemed OK, not particularly good, but not bad either. Managed to work everyone I heard, which was a total of 37 NA stations, so was pretty happy with that. Worked down to Florida and the Caribbean, but nothing further west than Nebraska. I meant to pop on again around our Sunrise, but I overslept !
