Comments:

The noise at my city QTH was solid S9 (as usual) but the IPO setting on my
FT-1000MP really helped out a lot, as did my Timewave 599zx DSP unit.  There
were lots of signals but after a while it seemed like very few I hadn't worked.
 I managed to work 47 states (only missed SD, DC and MS) and was worried about
getting Florida (never worked it from here before) and finally got 2 stations
around 2AM on Sunday.  The QRN in the house was just about as bad as on the
bands as my daughter had a post mid-term exam party going on upstairs on
Saturday night!  So I managed to work through all the QRN, with highlights
including working CN2R, EF8M, PQ0F and several JA's.  These are all "new ones"
for me on 160m.  I heard a lot of folks working Europe, but never heard them. 
I also heard PEI twice but he was busy working Europe so didn't get him.  But
all in all, quite good condx and lots of fun.  

Rig:  FT-1000MP
Amp:  FL-7000 (mostly running about 250W)
Ant:  Shunt-fed 40' tower with TH6 on top
