Hi... Let me preface by saying that all my ham experience thus far has been U/VHF and I don't even currently own an HF rig, but that may change soon.
But, I do have a friend (also a general class ham like me) who is taking a trip of a lifetime with his wife, sailing around the Caribbean. They're currently on the South side of PR. He and I were wondering if it's even possible to make contact in the current conditions (I'm in the DC/Northern VA/Eastern Panhandle of WV area), and if so, which band holds the most promise.
This, of course, would make a wonderful excuse for a purchase...
Thanks!
Bruce
