[CQ-Contest] Your DX Spots during the ARRL SSB DX Contest

[Stephen Bloom]

The other thing I'll add ....being DX for this contest is ...that relatively
few US/Canada stations were running ....period.  I operated assisted ...but
also did extensive tuning .....and out of 1900 plus Qs ..only 50 or so were
S&P.

Based on my experience this weekend, I've got to question whether more than
a handful of assisted European operators even tune the bands, rather than
just click on spots.  Not sure if assisted American operators were any
different.
