1 - almost impossible to find a run frequency without stepping on someone's
toes, except on 10 meters
2 - poor participation numbers by DX
3 - reduced # of country multipliers available; probably 25% less than
available in CQWW
4 - voicebox can't handle the traffic!
5 - keep working the same stations on the same bands that we have worked
countless times before
6 - BORING
Some stats:
- worked 794 different calls; 1281 total qsos
- just 133 separate stations (11%) gave me 40% of my total QSOs - worked those
on 3 or more bands - virtually ALL of those stations I have worked in every
contest in which I have made any effort - BORING
- 2 or more bands, 237 (18%) stations and 60% of the points!
Need something to increase interest, and participation, of DX stations
