Comments:
QRP is a lot of work. I'm soooo glad voice keyers were invented! I was able to
get a few runs going, but never long nor fast. The only Europeans on Saturday
were a handful of EAs and CTs; Europe was somewhat runnable on Sunday but
northern Europe was almost totally absent. 22 hours of S&P is enough.
Activity seemed lighter than usual; maybe the Easter holiday kept activity down.
After the viciousness of many pile-ups in ARRL DX SSB, I was suprised that the
pile-ups weren't deeper and more contested; on the other hand, multipliers are
cheap in WPX, with a KE5 worth as much as a VQ9 and much easier to work from the
US.
Thanks to everyone that dug my signal out of the noise.
