When Topband conditions are good, it is easy to get enthralled by working
stations via the trans-Atlantic path.

This is a reminder to not ignore stations to the South! Every year, there
are many South American stations who struggle to get noticed by North
America and European stations. We hear many of them from our Northern South
America location in Curacao, calling CQ and not receiving answers.

Also, after a dozen years operating as PJ2T in this contest, we find the
first few hours very  frustrating. North Americans are 'feeding on" other
North Americans. Europeans are similarly "feeding upon" other Europeans.
Europe, in particular, is loud at PJ2T in the first few hours, but breaking
their pileups has proven impossible.

Kindly feed the Southern stations this weekend!
