Conditions were excellent. In fact too good: Even with a directional RX
antenna pointing towards NA, the EU stations were "QRM-ing" us (and calling
us), until their SR.
Of course, contests and DXpeditions have a way of improving conditions.

Hi George,
I thought conditions last night (Saturday night) were very good all night
long on 160 meters, with signals from Europe pretty easy copy near
Indianapolis at least 45 minutes before sunset. I was only going to put a
few stations in the log before heading to bed around 11pm local time but
wound up operating until 3am local time (0800 UTC) due to all the activity
and fun on 160.

The bands may be quiet at times, but last night from C6AGU I had contest
runs that were more like what you experience on 20 m: 180 - 200 QSO-s per
hour peaks. No lack of QSO-s here.
TKS and 73,
