Sometimes someone will get lucky and get excellent 160 meter transmitting and 
receiving the first try. 
But most have to work at it  with  isolated directional receiving antenna (s), 
and  transmitting antenna(s)
de-tuned while receiving. A antenna modeling program also helps.

Yes indeed, whatever he's using is
working. He copied me with my 5W signal
from Connecticut, 10 miles from Rhode
Island. Just got the LOTW today.

That is some more than excellent copy on
their part for 160M.
