赤文字部分の記載のとおりです。160mの状況が良くないため、これ以上、このバンドで時間を無駄にしないとのことです。残念ですが仕方のないことです。

[NEWS UPDATE]
Yesterday, repaired the broken string on the other side of the Hexbeam 20 meter element. About 30 minutes later one of the strings broke on the 17 meter element. It looked burned, perhaps RF and this wet salty environment is contributing to this problem. I repaired the 17 meter element. Hope the rest of them hold together. Had some trouble with N1MM yesterday. It was giving msgs about .wav files when I was on CW and hanging. Hope I have that resolved. Made a few QSOs at my sunset yesterday on 80 meters FT8, mostly Europe with some W’s. So I have a few QSOs on 80 and a fair number on 60 now… 160 is a bust. I don’t hear or xmit well, so I’m not wasting any more time with it, sorry. Just did a Clublog upload, over 14K QSOs so far, even with all the hardware and software problems. Winding down here, couple days to go.
