Topband: Conditions for Stew Perry Contest

[Ian Fugler]

I forgot the contest was on.  I came on around 0630 UTC, called CQ and was
called shortly after by KL7SB, who was 599 here.  It was good to work a few
more NA around our SR, including VE6WZ who was peaking a staggering 15db
over nine.

Good to see that weekend contests still generate lots of activity, always
including a few new ones on topband.

73,

I came on for a couple of hours last night in the Contest, but conditions
were strange.

>From 00.30Z all signals were quite weak, including Europeans.  Then from
around 03.00Z signals started to pick up . . . although not fantastic.
Popped on again at 05.30Z but signals had virtually disappeared !

Surprised that a lot of the Big Gun stations didn't seem to be on . . .
however, I did manage to work 35 NA stations.
