The band was moderately noisy the first night, but it was much quieter the
second night.
USA: Missed VT, NV, and WY. Briefly heard VT and WY, but they were S&P and
gone.
Canada: Missed NS, NF, LB, SK, BC, NT, YT, and NU. Surprised to not hear VE5
and VE7.
Worked many VE3, several VE2, several VE4, and several VE6 stations.
DX worked (in QSO order):
First night: HK1T, ZF2AM, EI7M, KV4FZ, TO22C, CR2X, and C6ANM.
Second night: NP4A, KP2M, XE1RCS, KP4KE, and TI2KAC.
Fortunately, most were worked on one or only a few calls. TI2KAC called in
during a CQ run.
XE1RCS and KP4KE were very difficult to work -- took many attempts in different
time slots during Saturday night.
Very few EU heard on both nights. Did not operate during sunrise either day.
CW is sooo much better and easier. The wide QRM on phone -- arghh. Tough to
hand in there on phone. Still, 160 is tops!
A personal best score for me in this 160 (SSB) event.
Thanks for the Qs, Ms, and fun.
73,
Gary
