G3TXF - CW only, High Power : W
Worked 500 Q's on first day and 423 on second. On both Saturday and Sunday the
majority of US stations were worked with the antenna pointing to South America.
Signals were usually better on this skew path than they were direct.
Worked only one W6 in CA (K6AM) and no W7's worked at all. Nothing heard from
Japan. The furthest DX to the east was VI8NT and the further to the south-west
was CE3BFZ.
Although everything went flat pretty much within an hour of sunset [1610z] on
the Saturday, there was an odd further opening to the US and the Caribbean from
about 1915 to 2030z on the Saturday. Signals were weak, but they were 'direct'.
The same opening didn't happen on the Sunday.
Bye bye 10 metres .... see you again during the next sunspot cycle!
The antenna [4el 10m yagi at 75ft] was installed specifically for the contest.
Station FT-1k-MP and Quadra amp.
