On Page 2, the color code for the first 23z hour is incorrect. It shows that 15m is the second most active band, but 15m has only 54,000 QSOs in this hour, and 40m has nearly 73,000. 

It would be interesting to correlate these statistics to Sunspot number or Solar flux. Some years, there’s nothing doing on 10m at all, and others it’s  a source of a bunch of Qs, as you can see from the yearly analysis.

What I learned from these charts is that you need to be sleeping in the 08z, 09z and 10z hours….
