"When no one tries, the band is closed"
Agreed! So far this "closed" Summer season has given me four new
DXCCs.. 7O6T, RI1ANF, CY9M, and YE0M. Three of these are already
confirmed on LOTW. Except for 7O6T, I had an almost empty band to work
the others. I assume that this is because everyone else thought that the
band was closed.
