Comments:
Probably the consistently quietest (in all directions) I've ever heard 160M for
an entire contest period. I was expecting more activity from Europe, but
propagation did seem a bit up/down and perhaps the Europeans went QRP en masse.
Japan is normally a tough auroral path from here on topband but Sunday morning
delivered perhaps the clearest unwavering signals from Japan that I've ever
heard (7 JA QSOs). Nice to hook up with kiwi Greg for my longest QSO.
The Elecraft K3 again delivered amazing performance with its receiver in stereo
diversity as usual here.
Thanks for all the Q's and regrets to those I couldn't pull out.
Equipment:
Elecraft K3, Acom 2000A, N1MM Logger software
inverted L transmit
4 X 580ft Beverage antennas (NE,SE,SW,NW)
73/HNY,
Barry N1EU
