Wow, that's a new one for me! Thanks. My remote location on Haida Gwaii (formerly the Queen Charlotte Islands) has exceptional conditions with very little noise, and with a great ocean path. A couple of weekends ago, I was able to hear Radio Piranha International on 6330 with only 8 watts from Europe, and we routinely hear Australian X-banders with between 100 and 400 watts only. I'm listening to what I recorded earlier, and would be happy to share it with you. An eQSL would be appreciated. I was using a North Beverage at 150 m in length (unterminated) into a Kiwi SDR. 73!
