Comments:
What a difference two years makes!
More than doubled my score from 2008. I'm sure the guys ahead of me did too so
the standings should remain about the same.
20 opened big time to EU early both days and stayed wall to wall all day and
late into the night. It was a struggle in most cases with low power and a
tribander, but I eventually worked everyone I heard.
15 was open to EU for a couple of hours in the morning but only the big guns
were heard. 4O3A was the winner here. Some wierd paths with ST2AR, and
several middle east stations popping up for a few minutes. SA and the Carib
were open all day and we ran out of stations to work early. Big surprise was
when KH9 called in and went to 20 with me.
Only a couple of hours on 10 to SA, but no Caribbean so only worked 5 mults.
Having just done the CW contest from ZF2AM, this was a completely different
game from the west coast. I believe I prefer ZF.
Thanks to all for pulling my weak signal out of the mess.
73,
John, K6AM/ZF2AM
