I had fun this year in the 50MHz Spring Sprint.  The band was open 
pretty much the entire four hours of the contest.  It was open to a 
wider geographic area this year than last, and I worked two more 
grids than last year.  But I felt the opening wasn't as "deep" as last
year - I had to struggle very hard to work many of these stations,
and almost a third of my QSOs were by search and pounce, as the callers
were just not answering my CQs this year the way they were last year.
I do not know if this is because propagation wasn't as solid or 
because the activity in this contest is still on the decline.
