Comments:
My top Yagi is broken so I only used the lower two...a little handicap in
beaming multiple directions at times. Conditions here were definitely down
compared to last year and especially noticeable to the Far East. I missed
zones 18, 23, 24, 26, 34 and 39. I did hear a couple of very weak z24 but
conditions were such that there was no point in even calling.
I'm sorry to say it but it appears that last Fall was the short-term
sunspot/flux peak and the 12 month Smoothed Sunspot Number (SSN) may have
peaked in February 2012. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. Back to the low
bands!
Thanks to everyone for the great participation and your patience if I had
problems copying. Prayers for everyone in Sandy's path.
73, Bill W4ZV
