160m

What the above shows is that elevation angles up to about 15 degrees give E hops, elevation angles between about 16 and 20 degrees can give ducting in the electron density valley above the E region peak in the nighttime ionosphere and elevation angles above 20 degrees give F hops. Of course these values may vary depending on where you are in the world and on geomagnetic field conditions.
