Comments:
Dear OMs and YLs,
This is the first outing for EI0R. Our operators were EI6IZ, EI6FR,
EI2KC and EI2CN.
We found conditions disappointing, propagation to the States and
especially the western states was not great. EI6FR through dogged persistence
managed to work KY7M in Arizona for our furthest west QSO on Sunday morning not
far from EI sunrise. The previous night our most westerly QSO was with
Kansas. We did manage to work our friend K5RX in the great state of Texas as
well. No JA, BV, VR 9M or HS QSOs this year. Some were heard but they did
not hear us. The conditions just seemed flat as has been the case for much of
this year. Some good may come with declining solar activity. So next year may
be better, we hope to again be working KH6 on TB.
