On 160M in the day time in the summer with low power -- you ain't going

This is true but not for the reason you might think. 160 meters has
excellent groundwave propagation; better than any other amateur band in
fact, but the lack of stations is the real reason 160 is mostly dead in
the daytime. It's a self fulfilling prophecy - nobody is on, so I'm not
going to get on either. The same thing happens on 10 meters at the
bottom of the sunspot cycle even though 10 is open nearly every day to
somewhere.
