Comments:

I used N1MM Logger+, Maestro and WKFlex with Winkeyer USB.
I guess I forgot to log C6AGU.  N1MM is giving no credit for countries worked
(US, Canada, Bahamas that's how I discovered I didn't log the QSO).
I cannot control my RX antenna via remote yet, so there were probably 20 callers
I could not hear.  Latency was a big problem and it likely confused a dozen or
so hams who called me but I missed their exchange (NIL).  And I logged about a
dozen dupes.
I could tell QRP wasn't going to be much fun so I tried LP.  It made no sense to
use HP if I couldn't hear the weak ones.  As it was I think I was still getting
out better that I was receiving.  I think I had some RFI in my WiFi, as I could
see the connection fade every time I transmitted.
I was visiting my Daughter's family.  My Grandson's and Son-in-Law and Daughter
were priority.  But most of the 160m activity happened at night, so I had so
pretty good runs by being late to the party.  Those run were fun!  I missed a
lot of sections out West.
