Very challenging propagation. Most of the time could not hear VA stations on
40 Meters due to noise and long skip distances. 20 Meters was the only real
opportunity to make VA QSOs. After working all of the running VA stations I
spent the rest of the time watching spots and running myself with directional
CQs. 158 of the 166 phone contacts on 20M are the result of runs - the longest
89 QSOs in a 2 hour run.
Very low CW operation on 20 Meters, it seems most of the VA guys were sticking
to 40M ... 80% of the CW on 20 was late on Sunday when everyone was looking for
contacts.
I found and worked five of the 14 bonus stations and one VA mobile. From some
of the VA stations big QSO numbers at the end of the contest (500 to 2400) VA
did have a great party - this was fun here in Texas, however, propagation was
not in our favor.
See you all in the TXQP in September! 73, Jim
