Comments:
This was a fun weekend. Overall band conditions were better than 2009. Score
improvement of 20 percent in 4 fewer hours this year with same rig and
antennas. Still looking forward to nighttime openings on 20, as facing the
long nights on the lower bands with modest antennas presents challenges.
To echo other comments, I was frustrated waiting through a dozen or more QSOs
to find out the DX callsign. Nevertheless, lots of positives and very few
negatives overall!
Tnx to ZL8X (my DXpedition of the year!) for 6 bands, and to the PJs for many
new band countries. 116 countries worked overall.
Tnx also to CQ for sponsoring this great event!
