Patrick, we are in Seattle on our way home from a cruise that started in Seward and ended in Vancouver, BC. I did some "DXing Lite", but as it was right at the solstice, was pleased to hear anything. With the extended daylight and twilight hours there, listening seemed to be very, very long sunset skip sessions (which was great. SSS is my fav). Based on your experience, is this truly the case or wishful thinking on my part? Regardless, a fun trip on all counts.

Sorry about the bandwidth of the entire thread. I can't delete on this phone.

But of course the receivers of today were better than the ones I had at that time. I knew nothing about antennas other than a simple long wire. I did get some TA's over the pole in the Winter. Wish I knew then what I know now. hi.
