(de W4ZV): Let me add a comment here.  Europe, please spot VK0IR
AND his QSX frequency as we approach the brief USA 160 window 
after 2200.  Yesterday, I noticed several guys calling ON
his transmit frequency or 1 up when in fact he was listening
5 up.  Signals are extremely weak here so please help us by
spotting both his transmit AND QSX frequencies around 22-23 UTC.
