Great conditions, best total yet of 49 Qs. Last half hour was disappointing
with wall to wall SSB QRM covering the top half of the band and I had worked
everyone I could hear at the bottom!
Tried a refined tactic tonight of starting at the bottom of the band, tuning
up and marking every station I could hear on the bandmap. I have found it
pointless to call the loud stations in the first 10 minutes or so because
everyone else is doing the same! With 15 calls on the band map it was very
easy to click on the spots and work them when the initial rush died down.
Good to hear so many GM stations on the air and I also worked two GWs,
despite the score last Saturday!
All in all good fun, thanks for the Qs.
