Title: 15-meters open - coast to coast
Post by: W7NGA on March 26, 2016, 03:03:07 PM
Big signal from W2VW amidst some kind of SSB contest. Still, 21.430 Mhz AM was well represented this afternoon. Nice chat with Dave, coast-to-coast.

Would it be possible for folks to post the UTC time the activity is heard. Is it almost the same time everyday?? I thought there was good AM with the UK mid-morning Eastern Time,,,,, guessing 1400 UTC???

I see other postings that it seems to be "late afternoon" when 15M is alive.

thanks

Remember, 15 meters is a daylight band so generally as long as both locations have daylight, contact is possible.
