[SADXA] 160 meter propagation

[Wes Stewart]

Bill,

Since you are the guru of the SADXA 160-meter propagation studies program I 
thought I would pass along the following:

This morning I worked V633KS at 1312Z, which coincidentally is the time of 
official sunrise.  He was actually stronger and the SNR was way better a few 
minutes later.

Prior to this, the QRN was running S8-9.  I suspect that the noise was primarily 
from the east and was attenuated with SR down to about S3.  He was an honest 
559, increasing to a peak of 579.

Being the equinox the terminator was almost exactly N-S and V6 is almost exactly 
due W (277 deg at a distance of about 5950 miles. Pretty good for a low (45') 
inverted-vee (ends at 6') that everyone "knows" only radiates straight up.


N6TR was still CQing at 1405Z when I had to leave, which I have to do now.

73,

Wes
