Apparently some felt conditions were better this year than last! And this
guy was running 5 watts!!
>From the ARRL Letter that came out today..
"On December 11, N0JK reported from Kansas on the ARRL 10 Meter Contest:
"Much better conditions this year than last. On Saturday afternoon, had
E-skip to W4 and W5, which allowed links on to F2/TEP propagation to South
America. Running just 5 W, I logged CE, CX, LU, and PY stations via Es link.
Double hop Es to HK, P4 and PJ2. Single hop Es to W4 and W5.
"Sunday the band conditions not nearly as good, but I see the northeast
states had strong Es to Florida. This in turn allowed them to link on to
South America. Also strong single-hop Es along west coast.
"Had some weak Es in Kansas, heard CO8RH, but he faded out while I was
fiddling with my hand key. I was able to work 9Z4Y on 10-meter CW."
