Topband now wide open...
Hi all....Over the past month 160 meters has really come to life with excellent propagation...I have been working 20 to 30 US and Pacific contacts each evening with signals anything from S6 to 9+....I usually switch on just after sunset 08:30Z and work the band until 12:00Z...I operate CW only and I generally can be found between 1.822 and 1.826.5...If you check the Topband clusters you can get an idea of what's going on..
Right now 10:05Z I an just hearing Jack VE1ZZ a Topband legend....Jack and I have been exchanging signals for 30 years.....
If you have an inverted L with a few radials or even a low dipole and 500 watts I will probably hear you here as i am in an excellent low noise environment...
If you are around and would like to work me, check the band and email me if you are hearing my signal...I often work mobile stations in the US as well...
Looking forward for some Island DX......73....de Bob..VK3ZL..
