Comments:
My QSO count was up 7% over my previous serious effort (2012), but my score was
down 4%. (The high bands opened early, and stayed open late, which seemed to
take activity from the low bands.)
As usual, I worked no European on 40m (nor, or course, on 80m). In a
refreshing change, I found 12 Europeans on 10m.
The Unsportsmanlike Conduct rule, concerning IDing every 3 QSOs, seems to be
having some effect; I only encountered one flagrant offender. The Excessive
Bandwidth rule is another matter, but even there, things seem to be getting
somewhat better. <rant on> But the Unsportsmanlike ops that irritated me
the most this weekend were the several who successively camped out two KHz above
my 21447 run frequency, and added to their logs by running stations on spectrum
that isn't part of our ham bands. </rant off>
Thanks to the real AD7JP for use of the callsign, and to all the casual ops who
fill most of our logs!
73,
