The Weekend...

What an awful weekend on the bands.....especially 10m.  The ARRL 10m Contest was a dismal affair this year, with absolute garbage propagation to contend with.

I did manage to put two VE6 SOTA Summits in my log on 20m, and I made a number of local contacts on 80m.

However, 10m just wasn't there.  I had no responses to any of my CQ's and I heard no SSB stations at all.  There were a couple of CW stations down on the bottom end of the band but they were sending way too fast for me to read.  So that was it...a total bust.

The RAC Winter Contest takes place on December 28th.  One can only hope the propagation improves a great deal before then.....and pigs may fly as well 😎
