[OKDXA] 160 Meters

[Coy Day]

Jon,

I plan on being at Green Country.  Looking forward to it.

Most of what I work on 160m is on CW.  I do have a few that I have worked
on SSB.  I have so much trouble with line noise that I usually have to
work them on CW where I can narrow the filters to get rid of some of the
noise.

Good to have you on the net.  Make it a habit.  ;-)
