but the "contest" does provide some opportunities for me
But, in my experience, only in the early morning hours after EU is in
daylight and those east coast stations who are still awake have started
listening to the west. My best results to the east coast are usually
during the 2-3 hours before their sunrise. AA1K is often on from DE
with a good signal and good ears. VT is tougher -- there are guys there,
but they don't hear nearly as well. As forr RI -- W1OP is loud but deaf.
W1XX is not as loud, but hears well.
