Well, "another one bites the dust"! With 10 meters non-existent, and 15
meters marginal, at best, it left for very crowded conditions on 20.
Contacts were up, from last February, on 40/80, but multipliers were down.
The lack of propagation, on 10/15, made for a much lower score. The move to
40, so early, left very few to work, late? I could hear, but not work,
several "in close" stations, that I usually work, on 40. I only missed MO
and HI, for WAS, and never heard either? The increasing participation, along
with the "efficient" exchanges, made for a very enjoyable contest. I think I
only had one station send their exchange, when responding to my CQ. I kept
the rate above 50, per hour, until the last 2 hours.
Highlight: 32 "never before worked on RTTY" stations!
Lowlight: With the ever increasing SO2R operators, there seems to be a very
discourteous trend of "making me (maybe others)" wait while they complete a
contact on the "other" radio!
