I also had similar results. After working TX5K on 80 M CW two days before, I thought I would see if I could hear them on 160 M CW. I had previously tuned my 80 M dipole (resonant at 3.505 MHz) with the newly purchased KAT500 to a low VSWR on the CW band of 160, so I thought it might work. Using the KPA500 at around 400 watts, I made contact with only 2 calls! Surprised the heck out of me!
