Down on 80 meters, the F layer would be the mode of propagation. I
wonder...................with Greenland being that far north. would it
propagate over the pole?

Isn't that around 2,000 miles? (East coast or MI). How many hops E skip

is
that? Seems like a long shot at that time of day unless you've got some

BIG
antennas on your side.

E skip? What darn propagation school did you guys go to?

Sheesh, I ask a simple question...


Well, to cover 2,000 miles how many different propagation modes do you

have?
and what are the odds? E skip? F skip? What else is there for this path???

I'd guess perhaps 2 hops for E skip would be the most prevalent mode (I

could
be way off here). So what are the chances considering the time of day,
frequency (3.8mhz), transmitter power (?), high latitude the path has to

cover,
and receiving equipment.

Just thinking out loud on this one.
