With 1500W and very good antennas, I worked one KH6, one VK, 3 RA0, 19 JA, and nothing else anywhere in AS or OC. Thanks to contest scoring rules, participants can only work W/VE stations, and the band is open from these locations to W/VE for brief periods of mutual darkness, peaking around sunrise/sunset at either end. While CQing, I was spotted several times in ZL and VK, but only those responses. ARRL 160 is mainly for the east coast of the US and Canada to work EU and the Caribbean, and most of those stations QRT after EU sunrise. A few of the biggest ones stay around to try to work JA.
