In rec.radio.amateur.antenna, you wrote:
have done extensive reading on NVIS propagation, but I'm curious if anyone
is actually using this method on 160, 80 or 40m.


I am using a 100 foot long wire about 6ft off the ground (basically a wire
tacked to a wooden fence). I am able to make contacts out to about 400
miles on 40m, but have not tried it on 160 or 80. Funny thing is that it
works really well on 6m (when the band is open) with contacts in the
1000+ mile range.
