[TenTec] OT: Question for Contesters

[NJ0IP]

We just had our Region-1 Field Day here in Europe last weekend.
10m was WAY DOWN over last year.
I think we managed perhaps 50 Q's, not more - even though we increased our
overall score slightly over last year.

During WPX, the only stuff I worked on 10 was a handful of guys in the
Carribean. 15 was good for less than 100 Q's.

My guess is that with luck, 10 might be good for a couple of hours and 15
might be good for a bit more, but I wouldn't plan on doing much more than
that. We're going for 3A, with 2 CW rigs.  One of those rigs will live on
40.
The other will mostly work 20 during the day, 80 at night. At night we'll
look at
160 and move the 80 meter station there for short stretches if it sounds
like it
might be productive. During the day, we'll do the same with 15 and 10.
