Comments:

"Really miss 10mb openings!"

After having had an antenna failure last year, I am back at JG1ZUY to 
operate in this contest.

The propagation was much worse than in 2014, when I made JA record 
especially on higher bands.  I realized that I was behind by more 
than 200 Qs after 12 hours into the contest from the front runners 
JH4UYB and JA6GCE.  The latter half of the contest was a challenge 
to try to keep the QSO gap from them within 200 Qs.  10mb never 
really opened to Europe from JA1 land.  It was agonizing to 
watch JA4s and JA6s in the Western Japan captured by HA1VHF RBN.

Anyway, it could be getting worse in the coming years, so I really 
have to wait at least for another 5 years before competing with the 
KING of JA contesters, JH4UYB.

See you again in JIDX CW.

Best 73,

Icko, JA1BPA
