  Jan.. that is true but you have many more stations to work in EU at one point per QSO than we do in the USA at 2 points per QSO.  There might be at the most 100 stations on in the Carribean/Central America and maybe about the same from Canada. You have thousands of stations to work in EU.

 With a poor propogation forecast for next weekend's CQWW SSB you will at least have people to work while those of us in the US will have hours of calling endless CQ's or not working everyone at all...
