Well, like, let's see, I'm thinking of some of the distances, depending on what you want it, what you want to work, like, if it was something like 20 meters, then I would try to look for a receiver, let's see, I'm trying to think, Ontario, what skips to Ontario constantly? Something like Minnesota or Texas or California, because I'm always hearing zeros, fives and sixes, so you would want something like that if you wanted to hear yourself, especially 10 meters, because if you were to, you don't want to choose a place that where it's called too close, there's something called being too close, like close propagation would be like 10 meters from, like something like Toronto to New York City, but hell, it could even be another place in Toronto if that person's not very strong, right? The DX would hear both of them, right? Like a guy in Germany might be able to hear, like your crappy neighbor that doesn't have very good antenna, and yourself, but you might not be too, so, yeah, since there's all those receivers all over the place, because I don't use them, I just kind of know about them through everybody else talking about it, then yeah, if I, you said North Bay, see, I'd probably try to look for like a California base or a Texas base or something to try your signal. Yeah, I had tried, because I was hitting, where was I hitting? I was catching somebody in New York State once, I've caught people in South Dakota, North Dakota, and further down on the East Coast of the US, so I'm going to start, I guess, I'll probably, what I have to do is I'll have to get onto like three or four of them in different distances and see where I'm hitting, and, because I'm not even sure, my antenna is running more or less North-South, so I'm going to get more, a lot more propagation East-West, so I may be going, yeah, like you say, California, that way, and, yeah, I'll try out Newfoundland in the rock, that direction, and then skip the big pond time.
