Comments:
Many thanks to Russ, WA5Y, and Dan, K7IA, for joining me (N2IC) in WPX CW. They
are excellent operators, and we are building a great team for future contest
operations !
We had a much better experience this year, with no WX-forced, unscheduled,
off-times (We lost 12 hours last year to local thunderstorms). The station and
software worked great, with only a few minor issues that were easily resolved.
Considering there were no sunspots and this is late May, conditions were about
as good as one should expect from southwestern New Mexico. The intense sporadic
E was good for lots of 1-point USA QSO's on 10 and 15 meters, but blanketed 20
meters with very short skip and high absorption when it should have been open
for DX. The decent EU propagation we had on 20 from 21Z-00Z was accompanied by
very strong static crashes from the tornadic thunderstorms 1-hop away in Kansas
and Oklahoma. With high QRN levels in the early evening, 40 meters to EU was
strictly S&P, but at least there are a lot of loud Europeans making it over the
static crashes.
>From out here, we hope for good JA propagation and activity to make up for the
3 and 6 pointers we don't work from Europe. Unfortunately, 10 and 15 meters
didn't open, and 20 meters was poor. However, 40 and 80 were both quite good to
JA, with low QRN and fair JA activity.
Thanks for all the QSO's !
