The "DX Window" on 160 is really a relic of very old times when split
frequency was not only the norm but the necessity for almost all DX Qs.
That time passed 30+ years ago.

 

The "worst place" to find DX in this past weekend's contest was in the DX
Window.

 

The "real" DX Window right now is 1800 - 1810.  USA and VE can transmit and
EU and PAC cannot.  I never understood why that isn't used better especially
in SSB contests.
