As a relative newcomer to 160 contesting I have been astonished and
disappointed at the number of well-known calls I have heard running in the
window over the past 3 years. I've never worked EU on top-band and feel
that behaviour seriously diminishes my opportunity for that one QSO that
would give me WAC on 160!
