I have been operating 160 CW as W1AW/0.  I know I was missing some callers last 
night due to unusual high ambient noise (it's normally very quiet here).  It 
appeared to be atmospheric.  Whatever it was, the NB was of no help.  Sorry if 
I missed your call. . . I was certainly doing my best.  It's really hard to 
have time to try the all various antenna options and directions when guys that 
are pee weak running QRP to the gutter only call once. . .hi.  Also, I have not 
been QRO due to an antenna relay problem in the amp.  With last night's 
conditions impacting my receive capability, it was just as well I was running 
only 100w.  Thanks to all of you that did hang in there. . . I was trying.

My best to all for a Happy New Year. . . Dave, W0FLS, W1AW/0
