Hi Jeff,
That's the problem with the ARRL 160m from a European point of
view. Jeff you get 5 points for working me , I get two points for working
you, in the same Contest. A no brainer, which is why now although I hold
the EU record I do not bother with this one any more, with the exception of
the odd QSO. I cannot see a good reason for the points differential other
than bias, and to make it a domestic contest with an added bit of DX.

Hi Gang
I have been reading comments about this past weekend's ARRL 160M test and I
wish to address some comments that I have seen regarding EAST COAST
participants.
Some of what I have read seems to suggest that we out here are not
interested in beaming to and or working WEST COAST stations.
I am troubled by this kind of thought because it runs counter to what this
contest is all about.
Basically, I will admit that working 5 point Europeans is very important out
here - but in my case it has NEVER been at the expense of working stations
out West.
