[PaQSO] FIELD DAY 160M from VE3 - land

[ANDY RUGG]

This is a response to the Grump's query.

The Cornwall, Ontario local club VE3VSW has operated on Field Day for many 
years.

We tried 160M once - in 1995 -  and only made a single QSO.  The time 
involved could have been much better spent racking up QSOs on 80M CW.  The 
static on 160M in June is quite severe up here.  Even in the low-sunspot 
years I personally don't even bother with 160M until "PQP" time in October.

In conclusion, we don't bother with 160M for Field Day.
