Re: [IRCA] [DX-tip] Amazing night for longwave!

[The Earnhardts <ale1@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm hearing 162, 171, and also 183 in Germany here in SC. Unfortunately I have NDB's on or near the other freqs! I was on an 80 meter CW net at 10PM Eastern and noticed that background noise was unusually low and signals enhanced for this time of year. Using AOR 7030 on my 160-10M trapped dipole.

73 and good luck,
Al, WS4P
