Comments:
Conditions dire for the first 7 or 8 hours but then 20m opened nicely to Europe
with some great pile-ups. I managed to hold the prime 'DX frequency' of 14195
for hours! Only 2 QSOs on 10m, and one of those was less than 1km away! 40m
and especially 20m were good in the end, 15m and 80m disappointing. Once again
there was very little activity from the Caribbean and, apart from those few
NA stations on IOTA islands, most USA stations gave me serial 001. A few USA
stations seemed confused by the rules and gave NA- followed by their serial
number, e.g. NA-005, even if they were miles from any island. Rig: Yaesu
FT-2000, Acom 1500 amp at 1kW to Spiderbeam at 10m high, 40m pair of phased
verticals, 80m single quarter-wave vertical. See you next year. 73 Steve PJ4DX.
