Comments:
Conditions are improving, but propagation still reminds 6 meters: First New
England and some W2s. Then MD but not PA nor DE. Then VE3 and only VE3s. Later
in contest a station from GA call me and then SC, two mults in a rowâ?¦ then I
worked stations from GA and SC only for a while.
But I was able to almost work WAS on SSB only missing KL7. Even worked two
DC, always hard to find. Several big guns from TX had scatter signals from SA
but not on direct path.
LUs and PYs were on most of the time as CE4CT and CX5BW. SA stations were the
loudest, but in LU and PY the propagation change the strongest from one station
to another in a few minutes.
The Caribbean, with few exceptions, didnâ??t have the signals they had two
weeks ago on CQWW CW.
Very few African stations considering the excellent openings we had on CQWW
CW.
No Europe at allâ?¦ not even Northern Africa EA8, CT3, D4 that usually are easy
on 10 meters.
VKs and ZLs were strong but they were not many besides the ones calling CQ.
This was a non-serious effort due to family commitments, only 11.3 hours, but
at the end had two times a 1.5 hour good runs with the US with over 200 QSO
hour averageâ?¦ amazing for this band at this time. I hope in a few years we
can have that back with EU.
Thanks to all for the good pileups.
