(the last 4 answered my CQ)
The QRN from a nearby industrial plant almost eliminates 160m here. After a
mere 4 QSOs in the first night I spent my morning off-time to experiment with
different RX antennas and noise phasing devices, but no luck. On Sunday the QRN
dropped just slightly allowing to pick out a few more callsign fragments. Sorry
for being deaf.
I really missed the off-time in the wee hours of Sunday and fell asleep a few
times.
However: A great weekend with spectacular west-coast propagation!
