Compared to higher frequency bands morse speeds are lower, operating is more relaxed and there seem fewer big contests. Even the fading is slower. Here's an hour from Melbourne's new Monday night 160m net on 1850 kHz from 8pm local. The transceiver used is a modified (original) BitX. The antenna is a T vertical about 10m high.
