Comments:

I could hear more stations than I could work on my 28′ high 82′ shortened dipole I tossed-up to try out 160m from this QTH. I have since installed a decent inverted-L about 40 feet in height.  Again, I only dabbled in this contest since we still have many many boxes that need unpacking.

For me, Top Band still holds a lot of mysteries. And the fact that most people on that band don’t have much more than wire antennas (some WAY better than others) is a bit of an equalizer.
