Well it was great to hear so many stations on the band last night . . . and
conditions were really excellent at times.
I came on for about an hour from 00.20 . . . and again around 04.00 . . .
worked over 40 NA stations, right across to the mid-west, and had several S9
signal reports. (I also worked a station in India)
I'm sure some of the good turnout was due to people checking out their
stations ahead of the Contest this weekend . . . but it goes to show what
can be worked if people make the effort to come on the band !
(in reality, it was also much easier to work all these stations than it will
be in the Contest, with so much QRM from very strong EU stations!)
