Tom,

The ARRL 160 is the first weekend in December.  Dec. 6,7,8 this year, 
starting  at 2200 UTC Friday.     I have something going on at church 
both  Friday  and Saturday  evenings, so if I want to play,  I will 
either  get home and  stay up a little late, or  go to bed and  get up 
early Saturday and Sunday mornings and see what is on at sunrise.
