**NEVER** abandon 160 when the K sums are high! That is the 
time to watch the band.

Propagation was not only excellent to you Greg, it was excellent to 
the rest of the world even on near-polar paths. The 12th was one of 
the better days in recent memory, with QSO's from deep into 
central Asia to easier things like Europe where at least two 
Europeans worked their very first W QSO ever!
