Comments:

Remote from Japan.  I like doing 160 contests remote from here because it is
daytime for me when the band is open so I don't have to mess up my sleeping
schedule.  I spent much of the day operating but activity was pretty low so 
I
was able to read the morning paper from front to back and get some work done 
in
the afternoon while letting Win-Test do the CQing.  I took breaks to have 
meals
and take a walk with the XYL.  I knocked off at 1045Z to spend the evening 
with
the XYL.

The antenna is a dipole directly above my pond at an average height of about 
45
feet.  I never heard any EU and the only DX worked were FM, KV4, KG4 and HI. 
An
HK station was nice and loud but he went QRT before I could work him.  I 
heard
KH6LC CQing at 0650Z but he was weak and only working the west coast.  He 
was
gone after about 5 minutes.

It's fun watching the grid map fill up in Win-Test.

Not sure if I can operate the main event in late December.  I am hoping to 
put
up an inverted vee for the CQWW160 in late January, which I should be able 
to
do from Ohio.
