Comments:
While from an east coast prospective the band conditions took a turn for the
worst. The high bands being open till late kept everyone busy with little east
coast activity going to 40 & 80M till very late. Then on Saturday night 40M
went long early which reduced the short skip and the east coast QSOs which I
have come to rely on. Overall our 80M score was cut in half from last years
600 plus qsos. The overall score and qsos were also down as I the team was
unable to replace the east coast low band 40/80M qso's with west coast high
band qsos.
So, overall we are down about 200 qso and 20K points. As with every CW SS it's
a great time with a very skill operators and alwasy FUN.
We'll return next year with a new plan as I'm sure the bands will act similar
to this contest.
73 Bill W4RM and the contest team W4NF, K5VG & K8EI
