Conditions today have been poor. No trace of TX3A either on 160 meters or on 80 meters.
I did call CQ on 160 meters with only a few JA stations being added to the log.
The band was very noisy which is unusual here, as can be heard in the recording.

Hi om,
I usually looking for your call, My antenna system is poor,so I don’t hear your signal.
today also, can not hear, but somteimes hear your signal,however I can doing bearfoot 200W. As same as QRP on 160m, maybe you can not listen my signal,very difficalt pick up my call.
But I can try to call for you everytime, If you hear weak signal, it is me.
I wish to you on 160m.
I am sure we will make a QSO someday when conditions are good.
I have very good receiving antennas and I can pick up very weak signals.
GL and 73

Update- 06 November: Toshi made the QSO with me today with good signals. He writes about the QSO on his nice160m blog page.

Thak you for the QRP QSO yesterday. You heard me just great. I was truely running 5W into a vertical dipole (reduced size; ca. 1/3) fed at 18m. 30 minutes after our QSO you became truely 599 here.
This was my best QRP QSO ever!
Thank you again.
