Sorry if I´m a PITA right now but why even bother to
have this debate about K1N on 160, it´s not even DX
to NA, like a local station almost.
Jeez how difficult can it be from the US, anybody with
100W and a wet noodle for an antenna can work it. On
80 I´m sure at least from the east coast they can be
worked all day long.
I don´t know about 160 since so far they haven´t been
stronger then S2 due to geo mag storm and poor propagation
66 degs north where I´m at but so far I´m very disappointed
in their 80m operation, they never listen for EU or any other
area, they work 99,5% NA, it is the USA/Canadian QSO party.
I would have expected a totally different action by that
bunch of operators, I´m very very sad and sorry to see
where it all has went to.
Now this might not be the case on 160, if I´m lucky propagation
might get better and I might get a shot at it.

I got up last night for my nightly bathroom ritual and just for grins
listened to 160. They were calling CQ and I worked them on 2 calls. Not
many trying to get them. This was 1035Z.

Why not call around 0700Z after the
band closes to EU and before it opens
to JA? A bunch of us in CA got them
in the log last night fairly easily.
