So who broke the 10 meter band? More so who is going to fix it and
when? (Better be someone good as the last one who worked on it didn't
do so good.......downright well..... unsatisfactory!)


I worked Argentina from Salem, NH on Sunday. All my other QSO's were MA
and NH.


Perhaps it's just me, but does anyone else see a dcided disadvantage
to being on either coast for a contest like this during the down side
of the sunspot cycle?

I think it's largely a chance thing - if the short-skip happens to go your
way then it's best to be in the middle. (this year the Texans got the
luck. Right now 5 of the 10 top claimed scores in high-power CW are in
Texas.)
