The sunspot cycle has progressed to the point where the interesting contacts are
few and far between on 10 meters. There was a smattering of Europeans and JAs
in the log which was a surprise at these flux levels.
Only made 32 contacts and 9 mults the first night. Band closed early and I
drove home for some Zs. Most interesting first night Q:
QSO: 28490 PH 2005-03-05 0050 W5PR 59 TX ZK2HA 59 100
My first Q the next day was at 13:28Z almost 7:30 local. (No need to set the
alarm to wake up!) Things were progressing very slowly with the high beam
pointing east. I heard someone just above my frequency and was surprised that he
was a reasonably loud European. I worked him before moving down a couple of
hz:
QSO: 28492 PH 2005-03-05 1527 W5PR 59 TX SP6IXF 59 400
I kept up the calling, but no more Europe. Weird! Some nice Qs with the beam
pointed toward South America:
QSO: 28495 PH 2005-03-05 1840 W5PR 59 TX VP8NO 59 100
QSO: 28435 PH 2005-03-05 1922 W5PR 59 TX VP8DHZ 53 200
QSO: 28400 PH 2005-03-05 2100 W5PR 59 TX OA4SS 59 KW
QSO: 28403 PH 2005-03-05 2101 W5PR 59 TX R1ANF 59 200
In the evening I occasionally would turn the high antenna straight north and it
paid off once:
QSO: 28388 PH 2005-03-05 2208 W5PR 59 TX SM3PZG 59 200
Another difficult Q:
QSO: 28466 PH 2005-03-05 2338 W5PR 59 TX NL7Z 59 KW
Surprisingly the band sort of opened to JA skew path with the high beam pointed
west. First JA:
QSO: 28427 PH 2005-03-06 0046 W5PR 59 TX JH0HQP 59 200
A total of 23 Jas were worked in the contest. All on skew path.
On Sunday morning the band opened even later. I finally started hearing CN2R
after 1400. Europeans worked:
