For Central Asia - 12,500 km and polar pass.Very short time of common darkness. That would be a real challenge. No chances unless direct calls for Asia on our greyline. It will be a great fight! :) 73, -- Regards, Nodir Tursoon-Zadeh EY8MM http://www.ey8mm.com/ On Wed, Oct 8, 2014 at 8:5

I'm in Wisconsin too and hv them on every band but 6m. Right place at right time I guess. Now if another 150 other countries would show up on 160, I'd be delighted! 73 Dwight NS9I On 10/7/2014 1:03 PM, Lloyd Berg N9LB wrote: I'm in Wisconsin and I've never worked Haiti on topband either. I be
