Comments:
225 CW QSOs on 6m...wow! I had three JAs call me on CW...very cool. Not too
many good openings on 6m to enjoy but I made hay when they happened. It would
have been easy to get distracted with chasing DX as EU was coming in and some
new ones to work. Most contesters stayed to 50313 and mostly DX on 323.
Propagation is the key to this contest. If you have it, you are golden. Any time
that FT8 read S7 on the S Meter I moved to SSB and CW. Openings in all
directions to chase but the opening were quick and fickle. Lots of QSB stymied a
few QSOs. Got to be quick!

Not too many chances to run the bands with rovers or other stations as busy as
6m can be. I used FT8 to chase grid multipliers and got rate on CW and SSB.
I had two operators tell me that I was their first 6m QSO! That was pretty cool.
I would bet that they will be on the band again soon.
Thanks for the fun weekend and QSOs. It was great to run into many HF contesters
and CW operators.
73, Craig K9CT
