Comments:

Best conditions ever for a 160 contest here.  Friday night was especially good. 
Not quite as nice on Saturday nite with QSB early and then some percipitation
static in the AM.  Used single K3 at 100W, 40 ft tall temporary inverted L and
a single loop RX antenna.  Finished installing a total of 32 radials of various
sizes for the inverted L a week before the contest, and the extra radials did
seem to improve the performance.

Highlight was working ES9C early Friday evening - my first European QSO on 160.
 Japan was the best DX in the other direction.  Had WAS completed the first
night.  But never did even hear a station from DC.  Were there any?  Nice
signals from N0KE, W0ETT, K0FX, WC7S and K0UK.
