[RTTY] CQ WW DX RTTY - K7RE

[Brian Kassel]

Friday and Saturday saw abysmal propagation here, but Sunday was much 
better.  Never thought that I would be able to work
  60+ DXCC countries on 20M at the bottom of the solar cycle  in one 
easy weekend, and from the frozen north where the propagation gods have 
forsaken us.   Still, I saw many times when east coast stations were 
easily working EU and not a peep or squeal seen or heard here from EU.  
I only put in about 20 hours as my single  band effort ran into early 
20M band closings. I was relegated to mostly S&P,  as calling CQ almost 
always gave me very low rates. I ran 300-400 watts.   I missed MI and OK 
as well as all of the close in 7 land states.  I didn't even work WA for 
the first and only time until late Sunday!  Lousy propagation for 
stateside here.  Thanks to  all of the rare ones that showed up to make 
this a very fun   event, and of course to the contests sponsors as well.
