It is not that strong here in central NJ. FN20SI
It seems to peak NW on my 4sq but much louder on my inverted vee.
That usually means it's within 100 miles.

As the 2017 contest approaches, I wanted to update everyone on some
improvements to the web site.
Thanks to the hard work of Randy K5ZD, we now have a database of scores
from 2004 forward. We are looking for volunteers to type in scores from
years before that to complete the job.
If you can help,
Jorge, this new rule is for SINGLE OPERATOR ASSISTED ONLY.
Multi ops, single ops are not allowed to use remote rx.
For those of you that did not follow the thread, this was in response to

Jim, I take no side (yet) on this issue but RHR has changed that game.
If you can't afford to build the remote station, you can easily rent a
station for any contest and use it.
That is entirely within the rules as they exist today.

Guys, please keep up this discussion.
I am reading all the comments, and it helps to hear what people are
thinking.
I won't make any personal comments until after I digest it all.
I will tell one little story about last night.

Well I guess it's time for me to say something on this discussion, since I
am the culprit that actually wrote the rule.
There have been many good comments made, and I am especially sympathetic to
those such as Frank VO1HP with whom I have had some correspondence directly.

If you operated the 2013 CQ 160 Contest either SSB or CW, please send me a
photo of you and your station. I am looking for stations that haven't
appeared in the magazine before.

some new ones in the writeup.
Thanks, 73
