Comments:
As we say on this side of the 49th - "Tough sledding".
I'm starting to think that Cycle 24 will never arrive :-(
Everyone knows the bands are bad, but the static crashes on 20m on Tuesday
afternoon were a real nuisance. I had difficulty copying the weaker stations,
particularly Eu on 20m, especially with the beam initially on NA (90 degrees to
them). I checked 15/10m often, but heard only one opening each.
(Insert my usual whine about plasma TV here.)
I certainly missed the W/K gang who were probably at work on Tuesday - I wasted
a lot of Thorium on all the lonely CQs.
FT-1000mp, Acom 1000, NA software (never a problem)
3el SteppIR, 40m rotary dipole above it, 80m inv.V, 160m inv.L
