Bryce and Nick reconvened for the first time in 2024 for a fun-filled episode of the VHF DX Podcast! First, we recapped the recent flurry of January E-Skip reported in the western-half of North America, including some very impressive short skip receptions from the DX ace in the desert, Randy KW4RZ in Goldfield, NV.
Then, we were delighted to be joined by DXer Chris Kadlec, resident of Fremont, MI, for the first in a two part series. Chris has over 25 years of experience as a mobile DX'er, artfully using the curvature of the US Great Lakes and the terrain alongside them to observe some truly remarkable propagation phenomena. Chris shares with Bryce and Nick his observations, not limited to:
- His DX backstory
- What kind of experiments he's conducted along Lake Michigan, Lake Huron, and beyond, in what Chris deems as "Marine DX"
- Differences between right along the shoreline versus inland for tropospheric enhancement
- Land/water connections & duct linkages
- How the lakes may influence sporadic-E, as well
If you've ever done any sort of DXing near a coastline, or want to learn more about what kind of subtleties are possible, you won't want to miss this talk with Chris, who has done spectacular work for our DX community with his research.
