Ah, now that brings back memories. I worked DXCC as a Novice (KN0LTB) in
1958-59, all within 21.100 - 21.125. The conditions were so incredible in
those days, with sunspot levels double what we have in a good cycle now.
Bill, W4ZV, was the first Novice to achieve DXCC (as KN4RID), also in that
same era, and also in that same little range of frequencies. Now you rarely
hear anything up there, but in those days there were signals from 21.000
all the way up to the phone band.
