Dear Dr Ostwald, Even though I have not experienced any echoes on HF,I think I will keep an open mind.We cannot even explain a weak force like gravity completely, after many years of ongoing research.Who are we to say that LDS belong in fairy tale? :-)After all, we are receiving echoes of the big bang in the microwave background, so what is a few hours between friends on 160m ? :-) Regards,Raoul ZS1C

And i do a lot of transmitting and have relatively sensitive rx systems. Given the laws of field expansion and attenuation i consider it a hoax. I have had round the globe echoes on 20m. But was using 6 el monobander with power and at the rite time, when we had greyline. Sometimes 2 to three rounds. That was physically explainable. Anything else is from the land of Alice. 73 de wolf df2py _________________ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband _________________ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband
