Just want to say that I am NOT trying to start another one of those "US
vs THEM" but I will point out that in my log there were more the local KS
guys worked than local MO guys.

Seems like the distance determines which band is most favorably worked -

K0XM on 15 - KS
K0WA on 15 - KS
K0VBU on 15 - KS
N0AG on 80 - KS

K0OU on 10 & 20 - MO
AE9B on 160 - MO

Antenna direction may also play into this picture.  To work the ones in
close it was interesting to see which worked better - turning the beam
sideways & work them off the side or turn it 180 & work them off the back
side.

As always  AE9B was LOUD!.  Working him the only difference between a KW
& a 100 watts is whether he is S9 + 60 or at the lower power ONLY S9 + 50

Thanks to all.
