Comments:
Wow! Conditions were great for much of the contest, yielding a personal best
score for me. The upgraded 80/40 high dipoles really play nicely, and yielded a
dozen or so EU on 80, a lot more on 40. More than 100 countries on three bands,
and might have done that with 10M with better choices of hours.
I haven't studied statistics, but I'd bet close to half of the Qs are JA. Too
bad they only count for one multiplier. We have gotta do something with the
scoring rules to make this contest interesting for folks outside the Atlantic
basin. Have you noticed how few VKs and ZLs are active? VK is a CONTINENT
bigger than most of EU.
Now if we could only get those JAs to stop signing their call three times in
every QSO! I continue to get better with SO2R, but I sure was groggy after
lunch today, with lots of dumb goofs.
73, Jim K9YC
