RTTY Folks:
Friday night was the pits here as well in far western SD. Really wild
conditions this time out throughout the 3 time periods here. Some
stateside stations that were very strong and should have been a "Slam
Dunk", could not copy me at all. I really thought something was wrong
with my TX signal. Then a few minutes later, I would work something
really weak, and rare. Very strange. The problem wasn't signal strength,
but some kind of distortion the best that I could figure.
I did work some good rare stuff though like Ethiopia, Indonesia 2X,
Hong Kong, Senegal, Cypress, Macedonia and the usual EU suspects. Japan
was noticeable absent, worked only 1. I did mange to work ZL2AMI though.
Looks like I have a minimum of 50 unique countries worked this time
out. But the close-in stuff was tough.
Guess Maybe That Is What Makes a Ball Game ;)
