What I have found to work well

Pay attention to everything Eric says, and take a look at his web page showing his RX antenna farm. Eric consistently has the best ears on the band! In the 4-5 years I've been working QRP on 160M, only once has Eric failed to hear me, and he usually hears me within the first 15-20 seconds that I begin calling. And I'm nearly always in the direction opposite from the dominant opening to his QTH. He's the only guy that far east I can work mid-evening -- for everyone else, I must wait for late evening and sunrise openings.
