[Elecraft] Best band for low cost DXing?

[JT Croteau]

I too would like to know why 20M wasn't considered by the OP.  20M is
a great, easy, and cheap band to get on and make lots of DX contacts
especially during a contest weekend. A simple halfwave dipole can be
constructed for a very low cost, sometimes free if you scrounge, and
work well at 30 to 35'. Most people frown upon contests every weekend
but get on the air during a contest and you'll have DXCC in no time
flat.
