Comments:
Four hours is about all I can stand listening to SSB on a crowded band.
Listening to stations with QRM from both sides of their signals gives me a
splitting headache. I am much more comfortable with the CW and RTTY contests.
I just mostly searched and pounced for my contacts. I did try running some but
was only successful on 40M where I had about a dozen contacts before having
stations encroach to within a kHz or two of my run frequency.
On 10M I called a station out west several times but but he could not hear me
well enough to get my call. Then he said that he was running a KW to a TH7!
And he was definitely calling CQ NAQP! After about 3 hours 10M closed
completely.
73, Sam W4PK
