You nail it Carl....If there could only be by gentleman's agreement in
Europe a 5 Khz window anywhere on the band for NA stations to be at
least heard and worked...sort of a EU "CQ Test" machine free zone.
Would that be of any help? I have thought of using 1809 and QSX up on
1811 but understand there are commercial data transmitters below 1810
there in EU.

Cq160 is not very interesting for a dx-er anymore. A handfull of european
big guns are covering the band with CQ over and over again but they don't
seem to hear very well. During the morning hours I can hear a layer of NA
and SA stations behind the usual european contest stations who keep CQ-ing
test continuously. And it seems to be the same problem in the US. Hope to
meet you after the contest!
