[AMRadio] 10M AM Frequencies

[Rob Atkinson]

I'd like to get some idea from you all who have been operating 10
lately what the active hours are.   I mean, I don't want to get a rig
all set up on there with an antenna at 9 p.m. if the band usually
folds earlier.

Is it usually only open in the mid-day, or during daylight or....?

In my typical operating world, the high band is 40 m.  20 and 15 are
VHF, 10 is UHF and 6 is daylight.  hi hi

tnx
