Apparently there is a lot of interest on the list about this. I am new to 160 meters and struggling to get my radios and antennas up to par. I was dismayed to see that there is a "season". I surely expect propagation to change but I expected to be more or less able to find some QSOs most of the time. I was pleased to see hams respond favorably about staying on the air. I do participate in some of the contests but I am more interested in rag chewing. As I make improvements in my station equipment I hope I'll be working more and more Top Band hams. 73, Bill KU8H _______________________________________________ UR RST IS ... ... ..9 QSB QSB - hw?
