[Elecraft] 10 METERS IS OUT

[Jim Brown]

That may be why you didn't hear much. At this point in the solar cycle, 
most propagation on 10M  is not very strong, so it takes the 10 dB or so 
advantage of CW over SSB to make many of the QSOs. I'd guess that half 
of those I made on CW would not have been possible on SSB. One of my 
buddies, N6ZFO made 606 CW and 251 SSB QSOs.

I wouldn't call it a free for all, rather a good contest. At times, I 
might see 100 signals on the P3/SVGA between 28,000 and 28,070 kHz, at 
other times as few as a half-dozen. Late morning here I often had 2-3 
callers to a CQ.
