Lots of QRN and few signals

Worked C6ANM, PJ2T, NP2J, ZF5T and JA7YBK.

I just did S&P.  Ten meters was hopping; at once I was working the Caribbean, SA, JA, VK and ZL.  Fifteen was the same at times; worked about 80 PYs, also snagged FR and 3X.

Made just two contacts on 160 ssb during the contest. Cndx way below
those of the ARRLWWDX-cw contest. Curious how others saw the band?

Overall, even 40m was well below par to VK/ZL/JA, although 10-15
proved interesting esp to S.A. - thank you PY-boys!

Most interesting qso was with ZM4T on 20 Sun morn Long Path. He was a
solid 58 for several hours. Heard a very copiable HS5 at around the
same time but I didnt get him in the log, and he had major difficulty
copying NA.

Oh well. Sometimes what the right hand giveth, the left hand taketh
away....
