Comments:
Got a late start (Sat. AM), so decided to to single band 10m, to see how the
band was holding up this late in the cycle. As it turns out, not well.
I only worked 4 mainland EU stns, and those on Sun. afternoon, with vy weak
sigs and a via skewed path (120 degrees). No AF worked. Condx to JA were good,
and I've never heard so many VKs in a contest.
Absolutely nothing heard from Zones 1 and 2, in spite of seeing them spotted
many times. Skip must have been very long.
I expect the CW section condx will be worse :-(
I think I'll do single band 15m.
I had to give the KPA500 the weekend off, and fire up the AL-1200. An extra
watt means an extra mile, doesn't it?
