Comments: Interesting contest but the ARRL Int.DX SSB and Open Ukraine contest
certainly conflicted with this new one. Propagation was strange but there was
an unexpected 20m opening to North-America lasting until abt 2200UTC. A pity
that not more US/VE stations were participating. Working 80m after 2200Z would
have meant battling all those UKR TEST stations, an option not attractive to
me. Having slept over my intended wake-up time Sunday morning, 15m provided
some nice JA/HL contacts while 20m was again the UKR Test field.
