Topband: ARRLWWDX-SSB Contest 160m conditions - how did you do?

[Wes]

Lots of QRN and few signals

Worked C6ANM, PJ2T, NP2J, ZF5T and JA7YBK.

I just did S&P.  Ten meters was hopping; at once I was working the Caribbean, 
SA, JA, VK and ZL.  Fifteen was the same at times; worked about 80 PYs, also 
snagged FR and 3X.
