Re: Topband: W1AW/0 on 160
Thanks for the contact, Dave. You were quite strong into GA last night with your setup into my TX antenna for receive. That was the last of my 160 contacts. Yes, I was doing the 160 chores for W1AW/4-GA last week. With a TX 4 square and 1500w, I know I was heard by those that I couldn't pull out of the noise regardless of which RX antenna I chose. I worked several locals that I goaded into trying whatever they had, and many were just plain W E A K on their 40m antennas. tnx Mike / W5JR / 160-W1AW/4-GA > On Dec 30, 2014, at 1:56 PM, David Raymond wrote: > > I have been operating 160 CW as W1AW/0.

Re: Topband: W1AW/0
Any chance for some SSB for us mid-west stations?

Freq about 1826, receiving "up 1". 0200-0400Z or 9-11pm Central. There's a ton of static this time of year, so turn on those amps if you want to be heard! :D) 73, Charlie, N0TT _ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband _ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband
Re: Topband: W1AW/7 in Arizona operating schedule
Thanks, Milt. I missed the ID 160 CW due to unknown schedule. Seemed most operation was mornings well after our sunrise here in GA. I caught the 160 SSB op last night but he was not amenable to switching over to CW since another op was designated for CW. I know I can work you on flea power, hi hi. See you tonight. tnx Mike / W5JR Alpharetta GA > On Mar 11, 2014, at 10:54 AM, "Milt -- N5IA" wrote: > > To better provide an opportunity for the interested masses who are intent on > working the W1AW call sign in all 50 States, the operating schedule for all > bands from Arizona locations can be found at the following URL. > > http://www.n7cw.com/Schedule.html > > The operation starts at Z Wednesday, 12 March, which is 5 PM local in > Arizona.

Re: Topband: W1AW
W8JI asked : "Is W1AW missing from 160 now? I use them to calibrate directions." I just checked with the ARRL, and the 160 meter antenna was damaged in a storm and they have been off the air for about 1 week. Current plan is for contractor to install new antenna on Wednesday Oct 24th. 73's Don (wd8dsb) ___ Remember the PreStew coming on October 20th. http://www.kkn.net/stew for more info.
Re: Topband: W1AW
I have been looking for them for the past week and I too have not heard w1aw on 160. Even did a search on internet trying to find out why but could not find info. -Original Message- From: w...@w8ji.com To: Topband Sent: Tue, Oct 9, 2012 5:39 pm Subject: Topband: W1AW Is W1AW missing from 160 now?
