[SEDXC] T33 why so weak

[Kt4zb at aol.com]

Hi Dave and others - I worked T33A on 20m, K9W on 15 & 20m, 5J0R on 10  & 
15m, CE0YHO on 20m and D3AA on 20m all on 8 Nov 2013  Worked K9W on  10m and 
SU9VB (rare for me to work SU) on 10m on 6 Nov 2013.  Only  time I have 
really been on the air; but, conditions seemed good no matter which  way the 
antenna was pointed.
 
All were at 100w with the tribander; all contacts SSB.  T33A was the  
weakest but readable for some time.
 
Best - Jere, KT4ZB

I  listened to T33A on 28458 and on 21290 but in both cases the signal was 
in  
and out.  I don't need
but with son spots so high why so  weak?   On 21290 absolutely NIL to S1 
and 
on 28458  NIL ro  S3.
I tried both short and long path but here the short path was  best.  I 
decided that being barefoot there was no sense me  calling.  Probably not 
true but a W2 in New Jersey siad they were  good copy and I noticed that on 
15 he was being called by W9's.  ON  28458 signals peaked at 2200 and about 
2230 on 21290.   I  finally heard a complete call sign when K4DLI worked 
them 
on 21290 (up  10).

I hope the S2 is better as I need S2 on 12 meters.
