Comments:
This one will be remembered for a long time.
First day an amazing ten meter opening trans-equitorial from VK to Asia
reminiscent of the sunspot peak. The sigs from JA were so strong I could hear
the Tokyo local CB traffic in the background. The path also opened to the
Indian Ocean and a surprise call from J57 Guinea-Bissau knocked me off my chair.
It was amazing for a couple hours. How much fun ten meters is when it is
working.
Fifteen meters stayed open both nights late to EU with difficult to handle
pileups but brought back memories of years gone by. Forty meters was, as
expected, great both days with long after sunrise solid sigs from EU and LP to
Caribbean and US mainland.
A tiring event for guys my age but a real contesting "fix" for many
I'm sure.
73 and hope you enjoyed this one.
