Curt - thanks for the lists. Perhaps the best description of the June VHF
QSO Party 6 Meter conditions was posted by NU6S on the 3830 reflector:
"Saturday was the best I have ever heard on six meters during a contest.
Sunday was just about the worst I have ever heard on six meters during a
contest." The big difference between 2003 and 1987 or 1992 was that 2003
had one great day. Both 1987 and 1992 had two great days. And the "great
Saturday" in this year's contest wasn't all that *great* in Bermuda. Sunday
was actually better for me in terms of Qs and DX.
