It is what it is. Some people find the magic in it, some don't. Life's too short to worry about such trivial things.

Yeah....100w, inverted V, QTH Nevada, east coast/EU wall...ill be lucky to SWL them!
Then again, ive netted some biggies in the past...if i can hear them, ill go after 'em!
I'm sorry, but I have to LMAO at this one. Are you trying to discourage people from working them? :lol:Quote:

Got them on 3 bands so far - 17 cw, 15 cw and 20 SSB. Mostly insurance QSOs but it's nice to have the challenge points.
I tried 30m last night but boy oh boy... what a zoo! Even with 3 elements and 200 watts it was just too crazy. At one point they were doing over 20kHz split. I guess they had to because it was worse than CQ world war. I shudder to think what the pileups will be like if/when P5 gets activated.
In a few days the pileups will thin down.Quote:

Propagation favors the west coast better than europe on some bands at some times. Try after 2100z on 15m. As much as when I hate when they do this, they sometimes also work by the numbers.
