the evening than in the morning, longer at higher frequencies, and
longer at distances close to the upper limit. But with patience, 100
Watts or more, and a single yagi it can usually be done. The
following screen shot shows two 15-second MSK144 transmissions from
W5ADD during a 50 MHz QSO with K1JT, at a distance of about 1800 km
