Well given that several people have posted that conditions were poor, I

spent on the band - even more so as I have this horrendous wideband noise on
160 at the moment!

ARRL 160 is a worldwide contest. Propagation varies from one part of the world to another. From my QTH near San Francisco, the only stations I heard from the west were KH6 and KL7 (2,000 miles over water), and I heard very few stations from the east coast (2,800). "DX" was PJ2 and C6 (3,800 miles).
