[Lowfer] W0AH/B heard on 1802.75, moves back to 1695.1 KHz as "AH"

[DOUGLAS ALLEN]

I'm amazed that the W0AH/B (running less than 10 mw out, ERP) was heard l=
ast night in the QRN-
1) in Colorado Springs (about 20 miles) by W0RW at 2116 local. I myself l=
istened for it mobile yesterday on the way to the Colo Springs airport us=
ing a 10M whip and lost it at about 10 miles.  Paul, W0RW, is an experien=
ced member of the MedFER/LowFER fraternity.
2) last night by W7LR in Montana, S7, on his South American beverage and =
S1 on his vertical.  Bob copied the 10 mw 160M W0AH/B regularly last Sept=
ember and was one of the few to copy it at 1 mw ERP output beacon!
I've added some more wire to the MedFER vertical tophat, and the beacon w=
ill return to 1695.1 KHz between several 5KW and 10KW commercial stations=
 on 1690 KHz and 1700 KHz.  With 100 mw to the antenna, the signal will o=
nly be a few db down from last nights 160M beacon.  Paul, W0RW, is the on=
ly one beyond my home town to have copied the 1695 KHz Medfer beacon (las=
t September) so here's a challenge to try to copy it the next week or so.=
  It identifies as "AH" at about 6 WPM CW.  It will go to QRSS mode in ab=
out a week. =20
