Fewer QSOs than last year (-100), fewer hours (-7), higher claimed score
(+50K)
I underestimated how good 10 meters would be, by a long shot. It got
interesting in the last couple hours, skip shortened up and I picked my first
of many Zone 4 stations (and a handful of new states).
I could not keep motivated Saturday and took a couple of breaks. Near the end
of Saturday night, I decided to just emphasize 15 meters on Sunday, to try to
get close to DXCC. Regardless, I still spent a lot of time on 10, and hit 20 at
some odd times to pick up a few good mults (like YB4IR). I did not work a
SINGLE new country on 15m until 7 minutes before the end (J35X followed by
TG9AJR).
My only QSOs with the local club stations were both new states: KO7X in WY, and
W0RAA in CO.
Activity has really grown, with stations all the way up to 28170. Whereas
there used to be a break on 40 meters between about 7055 and 7075, that seems
to be gone also.
I would love to try this from a real station some day.
