Re: Topband: 160m Condx

In Scandinavia freq´s above 1824 are the best. No fishnet beacons there. Carl Den ons 14 nov. 2018 kl 10:54 skrev Paul Mclaren : > I hadn't seen it mentioned but here in NW EU the continuous dashes from > Fish Net beacons can be a pain at times. > > Regards > > Paul MM0ZBH > > On Wed, 14 Nov

Agree Hasse! I have not seen many real dx-ers spotted on FT-8 though. I think they´re just watching their computers. This morning, the only station I heard was VE6WZ who called cq. He was heard for 2 hours peaking 599 so there is nothing wrong with the condx! Gott Nytt År! Calle -SM6CPY

If everyone is checking rbn and dx spots and not calling cq, there is no activity. 73 Carl SM6CPY _ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband

I remember working Robin, VK6LK, almost every evening on 3.7 SSB together with SM6DOI, SM7CRW, SM4AAH and many others. He always came up around 9 pm local time, his sunrise. After that I qsy´d to top band and worked VK6HD on cw. That was back in 1985. The good old time! SM6CPY _

Topband: CQ160

Cq160 is not very interesting for a dx-er anymore. A handfull of european big guns are covering the band with CQ over and over again but they don't seem to hear very well. During the morning hours I can hear a layer of NA and SA stations behind the usual european contest stations who keep CQ-ing

Every autumn (when the fluid is leaving the trees) and every spring (when the fluid is coming up again) I have to go out and adjust the phasing in my 2 el phased vertical for 160m. So some kind of effect does high trees have on the antenna. 73 SM6CPY _ Topband Reflector

Re: Topband: Effect of trees

The difference between winter and spring/ autumn and winter usually is very distinct up here and moisture is quite constant throughout the year. I have noticed that I have to adjust the phasing when temp. is going above zero and (in fall) it´s been below zero. Sometimes spring is late, sometimes
