 I'll make one comment as this subject is OT for this list...
  
  I spent the daylight hours of Friday driving across three states to get  home for CQWW and drag my battered butt into the chair with minutes to  spare... I  worked 17 zones and 66 countries, by S&P, in 12  hours, on 80 meters, low power, from Michigan, with some new ones (6W1,  etc.)...  The format of the contest is fine by me..  If the  original poster wants a stronger exchange, then I suggest SS, or  contests with QTC's...
  
  ON TOPIC:  was the several times I tried to work a weak DX (new  country for me) and a loud US station would start up almost on top on  the DX... Even with my best efforts neither the Omni 6+ nor the   MK-V (with roofing filter mods) could handle it... I'm slowly being  pressured into trying an Orion...
