>From Colorado there was a big difference to EU on 15m Sunday, but not as bad
as you saw. On Saturday I was able to run for 5+ hours and held the same
frequency the whole time. I was having hours ranging from around 70 to 95.
On Sunday I got my frequency ripped off 7 or 8 times and averaged around
40 per hour. Worked lots of I stations on Sunday. BTW K0RF's 15 meter
antenna is a 6 element monobander with 42 foot boom at 80 feet.

I was able to stay fairly close to the rate W0UN's monster antennas (and W0UA)
produced to EU on 15m Saturday. On Sunday his rate apparently stayed about
the same as Saturday while mine went to **** <censored for packet.

P.S. If you name your CT contest file 'ARRL' really bad things will happen
to you ARRL.CTY file when you do a WRITELOG :-).
