Comments:
I was bummed as the QRN would not let up all weekend and missed what sounded
like excellent low band conditions on 160 and 80, oh well. Some monster
signals: HB0/N0MX was killer on 80 and 15, ES5QX sounded like a local on 160
Sunday night, EA8EA was loud everywhere... Six bander (yes, it's twue!) V31UZ,
usually a distinction held by PJ2T but never heard them on 10. Only a handful
of QRP stations worked, not sure if it was conditions or just folks deciding to
go other directions. Pet peeves: folks not sending their callsign, I mean
seriously is once every few QSOs going to slow you down that much? Weird and/or
confusing cut numbers sorry 5nnnnn, ak, 1ttt, can be a real pain in noise and I
have to think that the number or repeats outweigh the potential rate increase.
I do agree that the ubiquitous "5nn" is outdated/useless. 40 sounded great, but
I wasn't hearing many new calls after a while. 15 was all over the place, with a
small EU opening Sunday afternoon. 10 was well, at least I worked someone, sadly
never heard VP6DX there. Lots of good ears and patience, appreciated as
always... Se ya in RDXC!
73,
Julius
