Trevor I popped on a few times on 160 over the contest weekend . . . but agree, conditions were rather poor . . . I worked pretty much the same NA stations as you.
I actually heard quite a few more US stations, but it was when they were calling other Europeans (who often didn't hear them) . . . but as I never heard them calling CQ I didn't have extra contacts. 73 Roger G3YRO ---------------------------------------------------------- Hi All First time to give 160 a good go during CQ WW and I was surprised how few NA stations I heard, I feel I was active at the right time 03-08utc but apart from VO1HP K3LR and W3LPL I don't think I worked a half a dozen more, worked some Caribbean stations as well I don't have a contest winning setup by any means but I was expecting a lot more from NA, due to work I'm going to miss the ARRL 160 contest next weekend which is a pity as it would give me a better chance to see how well I can hear NA, Just wondering how did guys over this side find NA prop and how did the NA guys find prop to EU??
