I have worked 11 states with it this winter but only at night.  I live in Richmond Ky which is in central Ky.  I operate on 1885 and so far not made any daytime QSOs.  I'm thinking I should reach at least the Cincinnatti area in the daytime.  Hopefully there will be a few AMers on 1885 during the day.  73 Rich

Rich, some of the gang up north and even in Colorado have mentioned
good results with 160 during daylight hours. But the event runs for
the entire weekend, so you'll have plenty of opportunity to find the
time that best suits you. It's really not a 'contest', mainly just an
operating event to encourage folks to get their AM rigs on the air.

Hope to hear you, looks like I'll be on from Steve K4HX's place in VA
again this year following FrostFest in Richmond.
