I didn't have a lot of time over the weekend to play in this one. Propagation
was not that great to KS from here, although a few stations were extremely
strong on 20m. The YODX test and the RTTY test running at the same time did not
help. I found very few stations to work and of the 56 Q's only 24 different
station were worked. Normally I do not work SSB but there were very few
stations to work on CW so I had to dig out a microphone. If it were not for
W0BH (13 Q's) and K5YAA (11 Q's) this would have been a very boring event.
Hopefully there will be more activity from KS stations if this is run again
next year. Perhaps a better time could be found. The RTTY activity on 40 in
the evenings made that band useless for CW. I didn't check but maybe some of
that RTTY activity was KS stations but from the general lack of activity from
KS that I heard I doubt it.
73,
Puck W4PM
