1993 ARRL 160m Contest

AA6TT
Tiffany, Colorado
single operator, high power

951 QSOs x (7 countries + 73 sections) = 155,280 points

a)  Lost 90 minutes to a power outage Friday night during "prime time."

b)  Conditions seemed fairly poor.  East Coast was never very strong, lots of
noise from the SE, never heard a European or African station, and I worked
less than 10 JAs.  Worked two ZLs, but no VKs.

c)  Not too many DX stations active -- perhaps the ARRL can do something to
spur international interest in this contest???

d)  I was gunning for 1,000 QSOs, but new stations were extremely hard to
locate after midnite Saturday.
