When I last investigated, all the skimmers and Web SDRs that were outside of North America all had terrible receive antennas for copying DX signals on 160. (And who knows how many of them are in quiet locations?)
When I say "terrible", I mean small "magnetic" loops, very short whips, low dipoles, a random end-fed wire, etc. No phased arrays or Beverages, and not even a Flag, K9AY, EWE, etc. Does anyone know if that is still the case? 73, Mike www.w0btu.com _________________ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband
