Pay attention to everything Eric says, and take a look at his web page 
showing his RX antenna farm.  Eric consistently has the best ears on the 
band! In the 4-5 years I've been working QRP on 160M, only once has Eric 
failed to hear me, and he usually hears me within the first 15-20 
seconds that I begin calling. And I'm nearly always in the direction 
opposite from the dominant opening to his QTH. He's the only guy that 
far east I can work mid-evening -- for everyone else, I must wait for 
late evening and sunrise openings.
