Comments:
Best September contest in years, despite no significant enhancement on any
bands. Good rover activity - thanks especially to AC0RA/R (sweep of 52 Q's),
KC0P/R, KC0SKM/R and K9JK/R. Rover & digital activity Sunday afternoon
helped fill in the football doldrums (Viking games are bad, Packers v Bears are
REALLY bad!).
FT8 was again great at filling in distant regional grids on 6m and a few at
E-skip range. MSK144 helped with a good number of skip-range grids. Rocks
seemed fair, not great. Notably missing were any TX stations other than K5QE.
One disappointment was the number of stations using 902 & 1296. I could
have done much better on those, but various stations had those bands down or
were not carrying them.
All in all, it was a big improvement for a contest that has been dying in recent
years. Hopefully we can carry this forward!
