Only in the past 4-5 years have I paid serious attention to 160m, and I thought that the DX Window had faded away and was no longer observed. It looks like I was wrong.
I understand its purpose, and I'm perfectly willing to abide by it. Perhaps all that is needed (for many of us) is a reminder that it is indeed active, and please to respect it. I spend a lot of time on 6m in the summer, and many newbies, unaware of the DX window (50.1 - 50.125), blithely call CQ and work each other there, until its purpose is explained to them. All same 160m. (DX = off continental NA, so Herb, etc., are welcome there.) I consider myself re-educated. How about: QDW (pse respect the DX window) as a reminder?
