[KCDXC] Fun on 160M

[Alex Tkatch]

 Propogation was a bit strange this time.Almost no EU
answering CQ and they were weak both days. I think I
had 1 JA, but not sure. Made 1170Q/59/46= about 340K
and may be plenty for the new W0 record. Last year was
a better propo. 
 Antenna was all broken by ice storm. Got it back up
on Monday, but it's working different. Something still
needs to be fixed. 
 Worked N0TT, K0BJ, K4SV, KA0HAE...
Alex.

 P.S. Good luck avoiding me in WW160SSB. I'm thinking
about trying Jerry's, NX0I, 1996 W0 record. But Jerry
may be too good to beat, especially for the guy with
english as a second language...
