Herb,

My 160M antennas are comparable to yours. There are MANY times over the 
years when you've been more than 10 dB above my noise but you couldn't 
hear repeated calls with my 1,500W amp turned on.

A post on one of the DX sites noted that they have been surprised by the 
level of equatorial QRN. Perhaps that could be part of the problem.
