[OKDXA] 160 Meters

[Jon - WX5NCO]

Good morning all,
It was nice to finally be able to check into the OKDXA net last night.
 Not only did I get to hear some of the voices behind the calls and
emails, but the random wire antenna i strung realy works!  During the
net, you guys were talking about the DX on 160.  I have kinda a dumb
question.  How are you working them, voice, cw, other digi mode?
Hopefully I will be able to tune up 160 and I will give a listen
tonight.  BTW, are any of y'all going to Green Country ham fest in
Claremore next month?
