I was at OH0V on 15.
Now back in Mainland Finland with net connection.
-I had many stations that were seemingly deaf, although I was not low power..
+The most positive sign was I felt in general the pileups were smother and
faster than before
+People did not ask QSL manager as often as before (for OH4A & OH0V QSL via
buro, via OH6LI)
--When working East Coast during our afternoon, people did
not behave and that took some fun away..
=whan saying 'N1 again', I get KA1, K1, W1 W4 calling simultaneously
++East Coast runs were LOUD at times
+Europeans did behave surprisingly well, even when trying to get thru to V73
+Amount of wider than 10kHz spreading signals was smaller than before
+I expect to see some actions from contest committee regarding the
wide skirt signals
+This high latitudes bands were clearly on or off, meaning I could sleep quite
well
+Some zone 3,4 and 5 QSOs after 22UTC on Sunday, so some guys know turning
antenna NE at those hours on 15 sometimes pays off
73,
