Comments:
Only a part-time effort. 10m was completely dead. Tuned across it
several times, even called CQ for a while. A couple of stations sent
QSY requests for 10m -- but it was dead. Nothing. Nada.
15m and 20m were exceedingly long. First went to 40m at 2040z. That's
too doggone early.
Not nearly as much activity as the NAQP CW or Phone. Found I couldn't
call CQ as much as I would like, since there weren't nearly enough
callers.
Had a lot of fun, though. Surprised at the number of European and
South American DX stations calling CQ NAQP. (After all, it is the
North American QSO Party)
Heard N4ZZ numerous times on 15m -- but he couldn't hear me
backscatter. Didn't manage to work either of my teammates, although I
followed K4SB up the band a couple of times.
