I wondered if Chuck might stir up some JA action tonight. I was listening for a while but must have left for dunner too soon.
I worked a JA on SSB about 30-45 minutes earlier. He was 5/8-5/9 and no flutter or QSB. We were both only running 100w and simple antennas. I figure SSB has a 6-10 dB advantage over AM. So, if someone is running 400w on AM and a Yagi with 4-6 dB, the difference is more than made up. My PW 40 watts probably would not have made the trip.
Congratulations on the nice AM DX!
