I have not heard so many stations on 160 Meters in quite a few years. My narrow (250Hz) DSP CW filter was swamped most of the time. I know that many Q's were missed because of the activity. It was refreshing to work stations above 1,900Khz as well. The SSB OPs were kind to share "their" bandwidth. The DX window (1,830-1,835Khz) was not too overwhelmed with domestic stations. I snagged a few DX stations in the window. My heart felt thanks goes out to those static crash affectionados who pulled my weak "160 'QRP'" 100 Watt signal out of the static. My antenna is a low, half wave, center fed Zepp at 10 meters high. See ya'll next year from Mississippi.
