27 grids, 74 QSOs. Two Es skip QSO: KP4EIT (double hop!) and W4MAY (single
hop). W4MAY and I were apparently calling CQ on the same frequency when the
band opened. I quickly jumped to 50125 and made a CQ announcing the
frequency I was going to and anticipated a pile up... but there was nothing
but hiss coming out of the speaker, and no other signals via E skip on the
band. W4MAY faded out in a few minutes and that was the end of that.
Tropo was about average. I did manage to work some rovers which really
helped the grid square total. I worked all the nearby grids but never did
work my own grid!
Hopefully the June contest will be a bit more lively. It was fun anyway.
73, Russ
