Greenland
 
Have any East Coasters (or anyone else for that matter) been able to
hear Greenland on 3815 USB during their scheduled time at 2125-2225?

Just wondering if they are indeed on.

Isn't skip a little short to hear that on 75M that mid-late afternoon?

In mid winter it might be possible.

Probably a good time to listen to stuff "over the poles". I talked to
a guy in Mongolia last night around 0045 on 20 meters. Will be hanging
out there again tonight (14198).

That's nice. However the original question I posed really had little to do
with anything being propagated "over the poles".

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.
