Fellow top-banders
Propagation on 160m is always good. The MUF is always well above 1.8 MHz, so
the signal always get into your antenna. The key on 160 is how low is your
noise! The attenuation is the main factor, if the arriving signal is above
noise you can copy it. So,.. you really have work
Well when I complain on here that DX Propagation on 160m isn't nearly as
good as it was years ago, people say things like "it's the Sunspot Cycle . .
."
Mark, clearly you agree that it's not that simple !
