Comments:

I (still) do not have an antenna for 160, so I ran QRP into my G5RV with no
tuner. Measured 2 - 3 watts forward, depending on what portion of the band I
was on. Had a lot of repeat requests and some folks just gave up and moved on,
but for the most part I was able to get through. Never heard anything west of
CO, save for one AZ station. Was able to claim a couple new sections (WV and
GA) but still a long way from WAS on 160. Maybe someday the Amateur Radio
Parity Act will become law and I'll be able to put up a real antenna for 160.
