Hi Danny,
As has been said, most of the good stuff takes place in the lower portion
but some guys have their daily rag chews on their favorite freq right up to
2 mhz. If i remember right, the "dx window" is between 1.825 and 1.830 cw
and ssb dx will be in that same general area. Of course most guys will tx
on whatever freq their antenna is best at, but generally below 1.850. If
you are trying to optimize a 160 antenna, 1.820 - 1.850 is a good spot to
shoot for.
