I watched as EU ruined itself in contests with super high power big antenna
stations. Result seems to be they can not hear weaker long distant
stations.... so end up working each other in a band full of huge sigs.
Seems now everyone everywhere is looking for at least 2.5 KW fighting low
sunspots and egos.
Just like the arms race, the amps race results in all being "equal" again.
Before 200 w worked ok and most had 100 or 200 watts. Now seems many will have
at least 2.5 KW and results are about same, just sharper, wider elbows.
The new amp race, Sad. 73, Charly
