slightly OT
I'm looking for a link to a web site that will show me a continuous map
covering the time from now through when the Stew Perry is over.
Why?
I'm trying to decide whither to run QRP or LOW power
my decision will be determined

They seemed like a good deal but cause noise interference

Specifically with their K3 configuration settings

P.S.
if you are a QRPer you know the Stew Perry
is the ONLY contest 160m or anywhere,

Anyone care to comment on last evenings propagation for the CQ SSB contest?
From the deep south there just was no DX going on. Spots were very slim as

Hi,
I have been slowly wading into the 160 meter CW waters since the Stew.
I'm retired and don't really have a schedule. I am up early
mornings...listening
I haven't built or used one, yet
but I have often thought it might be a good idea
to put a laser on one, kinda like pointing a weapon with a laser

perhaps what you are running into is
someone who is tired of the 3-4 intermediate attempts at normal speeds
and just cuts to the chase and reduces speed to get it done more quickly?
