I just did some S and P over the weekend, mostly on the high bands. 
Only things I worked on160 were C6 and KP4, so no great distance.

Spent a lot of time switching  various combos of radios, amps, and 
mic/headsets to see what works  best with what.   Hope to make some 
changes in the station over the spring and summer (hopefully for the 
better).

I did hear both Lloyd and Tom on 20 meters late Sunday afternoon, also 
doing S and P.
