Re: Topband: ARRL DX contest

Hi Mike,

I think the lack of activity comments were about ordinary week nights. 
Try again Tuesday and see if there are that many QSOs available. Let us 
know what portion of DXCC you can get then. I don't have a working 
transmitter at the moment but I do listen. There actually are QSOs to be 
had (other than FT-8) but not nearly as many as during contests. It's 
the same on all bands. Maybe I could get 1 percent of DXCC on Tuesday 
night :) Or maybe two percent of WAS <evil grin>.
73,
