Saturday


Propagation was great on Saturday With a couple of hours of 200+ on 10m.

Sunday

What a difference. It was bad. Really bad. LPL was S1 to S2 all Sunday 
pm!!! on 15m, marginally better than K1AR. Occasionally you could here 
stations up to S5 as the propagation changed but all in all, 15m was a 
wash out. I worked no 15 or 10m contacts all afternoon. Thank goodness 
20m was reasonably productive.

Where was Labrador? I heard no one all weekend from there. It's been the 
same the last few years. An exotic location for next year.


And lets stick to 48 hours lads. If we had the 24 hours option there 
would have been no one on on Sunday. Any one who chose Sunday as their 24 
hours period would have given up straight away!!!!! so LESS contacts. 
Let's not mess with the hours, lets do a quality job and address the main 
problem of attracting the thousands of non contest hams to get on and 
give out a few contacts.
