Hi, Ed.
That's pretty cool.
I noticed there were a lot more QSO's made duirng SS SSB; nothing in 
the three-digit range, but at least something and most of it east of 
the Mississippi.
I just knee-jerked my query onto the reflector after seeing only 1 
160m Q being reported on the 3830 summary for SS CW.  :-)  It just 
looked so very lonely in the column of 0's.
