Just a wall of noise S9+20dB here on 16 right now. A couple of seriously overmodulating AM stations making a big 'ole mess. I have to run some errands but I'll try again when I get back...........
Was good to make contact with you as well. Propagation wasn't in my favor but we made it work.WDX 128, nice to talk to you.
Standing by.

Ahhh! Wish Mother Nature was a bit nicer to us so we could chat. Some time it shall work!Just barely hearing 898 in Kansas and can hear his QSO with another barely audible station that is in Northern California. Yes, that was me trying to connect with you.
There is DX propagation. We just don't seem to have enough stations out there taking advantage of it.
Same here Jeff. I just walked into the room to grab my soda and you were kicking butt S-20. BTW, I talked with you on my 12w ssb radio using my indoor mag loop antenna. So that was a double+ for me -Thanks for the contact Woody, it's rough but I hear you through it.
Enjoy the DX.

Nowadays, certain low power data devices are an approved use on the regular 40 plus the 'A' channels; at least up here in Canada. When skip is open to Central Europe or Asia I hear dozens of those both in and out of the regular band.Someone is using data on 16
