Comments:
Only 7 hours on the air (an hour less than last year's 152-million-point
outing). Enjoyed every single QSO in this one, but all bands were horrible from
out west -- just a handful of EU mults, a light, light trickle of JAs with their
big QSO points, all on 20M. No other band produced much at all.
The cycle is done (this weekend was a lot like Volta 2008 and 2006), and
participation in Volta RTTY seems to have fallen precipitously. Better luck
next year.
Good news is the refurbished estate-sale SB221 ran like a champ after at least
a decade without RF, so now I have a backup for WPX CW. When the bands are like
this, every little bit helps.
See you in the next one.
