Re: Topband: Conditions on 160m for ARRL Contest

["Lee. KX4TT via Topband" <topband@contesting.com>]

Hmmm - I made about 35 QSOs on 160 on Friday night as S&P - while many QSOs 
were with Caribbean stations, I did get into the EU from 
Florida..........worked G, GM, EI, EA6, CU, LX, I, OZ, CR, F, E7, 9A, and 5B4. 
I was running 1300 watts, though, through a 160m Windom, with no separate 
receive antenna. The larger issue for me was QRM, but I had trouble hearing 
stations that are usually QSA4 or QSA5, so I know conditions were not 
good...................hope for better conditions next year..................
