Comments:
Operated mostly on Saturday. Six hours for 47 Qs is a wrist slitting adventure.
Fifteen minutes to a full hour between Qs was the norm. Tried working all
bands to see if I could generate anything. I resorted to working Special Event
Stations, PAQP, and some DX just to put something in the log. The lack of
response was unusual and I don't think it was propagation. Other operators
were giving me excellent signal reports and excellent audio reports across
central and eastern U.S. Heck, I worked a vehicle mobile station in Virginia
on 10m with no difficulty.
Tried operating 40m and 20m Sunday morning. After an hour of calling and not
generating a single Q, I decided to call it quits. However, I did pick up two
PAQP stations, one on 20m the other on 10m just 5 minutes apart around 1530Z
and both were loud and clear.
The highlight of my weekend was picking up a new DXCC entity for me, Iceland.
I easily worked not just one, but two Iceland stations about 30 minutes apart
on 20m.
