>As Kenny, K2KW points out, the best rates ARE NOT when you have a big
>pileup. This 258 hour was around 1630-1730 on 10M, mostly Ws with a few EUs.
>I already had about 1000 Qs on 10M and just hit the band from a stint on
>15M. And I never had too many guys calling me, just a nice, steady pile.

>But the secret that weekend to making a lot of QSOs was not the big hours,
>it was the fact I never had an hour < 100. And I never had an hour <100
>because I never had to S&P on the run radio.
