Topband: CQ 160 weird ideas

All - one of the more frustrating aspects of the 160 meter contests is the 
congestion in the 1810-1850 kHz segment of the band.  I understand that
there are many loud (and wide) European signals in this part of the band
during the contest - and often signals from the USA west coast arer just
lost inbetween them.  

I am thinking of perhaps trying to work some of the contest in SPLIT mode.
Perhaps I can transmit up near 1900 kHz - away from QRM and listen somewhere
in the 1810-1850 kHz "window".

Thoughts?
