[UK-CONTEST] Reverse Beacon Network Stats.

[brian coyne]

I think that we must recognise what a remarkable job the M5E team pulled off in the ARRL contest last weekend. For an Ad Hoc operation to push the M6T boys .,who have an established well equipped stn, so closely deserves the highest praise.
 
The RBN network statistics posted on 3830 today show interesting comparisons of the two stns on different bands and the overall total spots for each were pretty close. Both can be well pleased that they are placed in the top 20 'most spotted' and the continental breakdowns do not really bear out Andy's impression that south west eu were enjoying the better propagation, I think there is only 1 CT mentioned who is at bottom of the list and no EA's at all. What is surprising is just how far behind in 'spots' are the EA8's who, when we listen. appear to have propagation to NA all of the time, so why are the beacon network stns not hearing them ?
