[PaQSO] 15 and 10 meters

[n3xls at juno.com]

I agree it seems to me that high band activity over the past few years 
has dropped. It would be wise to have these half hour segments for 
each high band. This idea seemed to work last Wednesday night when 
some of us form the local area gathered on six meters for a net. we 
had a total of 16 stations join us some as far as Jim Throop. If you 
like to join in as well tune your radio to 50.140 USB at 9 PM

The Murgas Club screwed up this year in not relaying enough info to 
our operators prior to the contest. We always set certain times to 
operate on two meters, ten meters, and fifteen meters. With lack of 
communication between members we lost many contacts.
Next year we will be setting thirty minute segments for those 
operations. 
The contest would be better served if all stations in the state follow 
our published times. 
We have lost the importance of our quieter bands. I am sure  from my 
QTH in north east Pennsylvania, I could work many stations on ground 
wave in the western part of the state on 10 or 15 meters.
The big scores in the contest is important, but the amount of stations 
that participate successfully even with "ten contacts" is much more 
important.
Stay warm this winter.
