[Lowfer] LF Prop Question

Mon, 13 Oct 2003 21:40:44 -0500

My bet is on the lower noise floor. There are some real experts here, who
should provide a scientific answer to this, I would think. Usually what you
hear during the winter is local dimmers and such racket instead of lightning
crashes. There were many summer DX receptions a year ago and some this past
summer. As some would say, there is no season as it goes year around but
more operators climb out of the woodwork in the winter which increases the
reception reports.

This will be my 1st season listening on LF.
Question:
Is the enhanced propagation in the winter solely due to the absence of
QRN, or does the cold WX in general provide better propagation?
