[VHFcontesting] 902 and Up Sprint - Worst Contest Ever

[David R Buckwalter via VHFcontesting <vhfcontesting@contesting.com>]

I usually miss the 6m and 902 & Up Sprints because they fall on the weekends
where I have other things to do.   But this time I planned on being on 1296
for the 902 & Up contest.    All I can say is WHAT A WASTE OF A GOOD
SATURDAY MORNING.    

 

Propagation to my northeast and north (where everyone is) did not exist.   I
heard exactly 1 NE station at 170 miles and I couldn't be heard because of
radar interference.   I did work N8LRG in OH at 292 miles.  Great signals
both ways.  I also worked a few locals at 30 to 65 miles distance and
nothing else.  What promised to be a decent day on 23cm  turned out to be a
huge disappointment.
