Bruce, I was on about 7:45PM tonight and the band was suffering from some serious QSB and attenuation. Stations that are normally strong from 8-land were somewhat stifled. What I did hear was only about 50% of the QSO. This isn't the first I heard 160 acting up this year. This happened last week too. Maybe with the band opening up it might have settled down some.
Well Mike, you may be correct, the band was devoid of signals.
I listend out on your former 75A4, but nothing heard, other that digital pulsed noise at 1948.
Will try tomorrow evening.
