What an enjoyable, fun contest!. I thought that having to send the grid
square would be too complex, but not so. It adds another dimension.
I only managed 7 contacts, but it's a start.
Some observations from here.
Most consistent signals from Eu - GM3POI, followed by HA8BE.
First audible NA - K0HA, at 2346z.
All the stations I worked either answered my CQ, or came back to me first
time. I called many others, who never heard me at all, not even a ??.
There was no sunrise lift at all. Was this the same globally?
This is definitely one to put in my diary for next year.
Greg, ZS5K
