Comments:
Never thought I'd say this, but Sunday was better than
Saturday. At least from a competitive point of view.
Nothing worked at the beginning of this contest. Must have
called a million unanswered CQ's. Most rate was S&P on the
second radio. As short as 20 was, it should have been good,
but the activity was all working loud W6's on 10. (And
they were very loud: N6RO, K6KM, K6LL, and K6TA come to mind).
On the other hand, Sunday morning was very steady on 80 and 40.
I began to have hope. Activity was also good at the end,
which appears to be a crap shoot. I've seen some SS's that just
die at the end, and this wasn't one of them.
Only mult I had to hunt was NWT. Had two NL's answer CQ's (imagine
having a propagation advantage to a W1!) on 10m. KH7X was
everyplace. And I imagine even WB0O worked his own state in
this one.
