BT1WW, CHINA ON 160M
  
  The Chinese Radio Sports Association (CRSA) will air a special event
  experimental station for 48 hours to participate the CQWW 160-meter
  Contest from Beijing.  What is unique is that the antenna is some
  300 feet above the ground, thus it can almost see the Statue of
Liberty!
  
  But the sad news is that the location is rather noisy and mounting a
  receiving antenna is impossible.  So you may hear BT1WW but you will
  have to boost your signal to get through to downtown Beijing.
  
  The operators of this event are BA1AB, BA1OK, OH2BH and others.
  
  Good Luck.
