Over the pole seems to be starting to cook in some parts of the world. There was a report that an Alaskan ham was working all over the US on 160 meters which I believe is also a bit unusual this season. Can't say I've noticed much in this part of the world yet. Time for an expedition.

It's country, not oldies per listings. But managed to listen carefully to calls. It was tough but my TOH ID mentioned 106.5 which matches WRLV, and QTH sounding like Salyerville. I'm 100% satisfied with the log's accuracy, but would have preferred WLOD as it's needed here. Regardless, it
