Comments:
Very limited setup here, running 100w and Buddipole on my balcony off the side
of an apartment block (high noise floor.)
Saturday - 391 QSOs 44 mults. Band conditions where terrible until around an
hour before local sunset and then the band sprang to life for at least 2 hours,
eventually closing at 9pm local time.
Sunday - Significantly worse conditions than Saturday, with the band actually
closing several times during the day and closing for good before sunset. Sunday
was more like a VHF contest, pulling S0 signals out of the noise. Caribbean and
SA where consistently very loud.
At the moment I am exploring options to get more seriously back into contesting,
here in ZB we are very limited with space. I hope to have something sorted for
the CQWW contests later this year, I will also be looking to get myself a seat
on a Multi Operator team (Presuming COVID allows by then.)
Overall rates where very low and any runs short lived,
The best 60 minute rate was 116/hour from 1811 to 1910
The best 30 minute rate was 132/hour from 1804 to 1833
The best 10 minute rate was 144/hour from 1820 to 1829
The best 1 minute rates were:
4 QSOs/minute 10 times.
3 QSOs/minute 32 times.
2 QSOs/minute 98 times.
1 QSOs/minute 193 times.
Thanks to everyone for the QSOs.
