I have used the WSPR system to watch propagation and evaluate both TX and RX antenna systems on several bands. On 160 meters, using a "gold standard" partner station to compare against and averaging data taken over a week long period, I have been able to resolve differences in station performance within a fraction of a dB.

That's very encouraging, Larry. I've wanted to do exactly that, comparing two of my 160M antennas to each other, but didn't think there was critical mass in the form of others using WSPR on the band. Based on your results, I'm encouraged to move ahead with it.
