Another explanation is that they may have directional RX antennas pointing NE - where the majority of contacts are - while running omni-type TX antennas.

W6OAT and I are about 800 miles apart near Seattle and San Francisco respectively, and we both observed the same thing during CQ160SSB -- running stations that are very solid copy are DEAF. Contesters would do well to spend a LOT more effort on RX. Those who have not done so miss lots of QSOs.

And if you can't hear, please don't pollute the band with a big signal constantly CQing!
