The last few SSB DX contests, the CQ CONTEST machines on or adjacent to those two magic frequencies tended to be calls assigned to EU stations, primarily Eastern EU. They tended to ignore the "get off mylawnfrequency!" complaints. And in all fairness, they were there first, those days.

No problem daytime 160 will still be good for our local nets (100 miles) and then there are the WARC bands...

This bodes well for the contest, if these numbers hold: SSN:148 SFI:161 A:3 K:0
Unfortunately for me, I have a job scheduled for tomorrow for 11 AM. Between my usual Friday night TV habits and tomorrow's job, looks like I won't be getting into the contest until 18:00z, at the earliest.

I may play a bit. 'DSG has to work late, and other than washing her motorcycle in preparation for winterization I've got nothing pressing.

I never understood what the issue is anyway. In the old days I always used to have QSO's and ragchews on AM during contests. Even on field day. Never got any complaints or had any hassles. I did try phone contesting once and found it kind of boring. I sat there for about a half hour making brief contacts and racking up numbers and then got tired of it and shut down and decided to do something more interesting. Contesting just never grabbed me. But some people enjoy it and if that is what they like then I am fine with that. It's not like people are contesting 24/7/365/

I keep my 2 feet on the ground, and my head in the twilight zone.
