[COham] VHF Tropo Opening 26 May 2018

[Paul Signorelli]

Yesterday morning I heard Dale, N0KQX in Garden City, KS on 146.52 at 8 am with my "J" antenna.
 He also worked Denver.
 It was not a really spectacular opening but shows that it is happening.
 The 144.2 SSB guys are probably having a great time too.
 They use Horizontal beams to work tropo.
 Tropo signals could bend into COS and miss the top of Pikes Peak.
