I did my usual pre-contest CQing and checking the RBN to see if I show
up, to evaluate where to start. No RBN spot for me on 15, and only 1 on
20 (I typically have a handful). Didn't even check 10, though I did
scan the 10 phone to see if I could hear any Ten-Ten ops. I think I
maybe heard one. 20 seemed to me to be as lackluster as the RBN test
suggests.
A quick scan of the 3830 emails suggests that a lot of people were
avoiding 15 and 10. Lots of 0 Q entries, and those that did have some
15 and 10 Qs typically had only a handful.
