[Elecraft] EQP non-event here for me,

[Ron ZL1TW]

Hi,
      Didn't hear anything of EQP at all this year. Even tried crawled in 
here at 1600z ( 3am local) expecting the bands to be alive.....absolutely NIX.
Heard P40RH in Aruba calling DX and VK0DX on SSB yesterday afternoon around 
0439z.
CW had a few North European's calling DX, and some participants in the CW 
BERU contest were heard, otherwise nothing.
And we aren't even at the bottom of the sunspot cycle yet :-(
Cheers.....Ron ZL1TW
