Comments:
Took a casual approach to this one, mostly interested in giving the new sloper I
put up end of last contest season a try. Unfortunately, I was hoping for a good
opening to Europe to get some RBN data, but no such luck!
I did work a handful of countries, but nothing exciting. I had LU8DPM calling a
very weak CQ, when someone came in on top of him and ran him off before I could
work him. I had to S&P on the 2nd VFO quite a bit to pull in the last few
sections, but I ended up short, with no PR, PAC or NL in the log.
I did find the band a bit noisy both nights, especially to the SE. This
morning, had a pick up in JA activity, with 38 in the log in the last hour or
so before 14:25.
Thanks for all the Q's, I ended up having a little fun, not sure I learned much
about the new sloper, other than it seems to work well in NA.
