I don't know about that ...... I got on this morning for a couple hours
(even though it's SSB!!) and worked about 50 stations & 30 mults in 2.5 or 3
hours on 15 and 20M.  Most were on 15M and 20 was tough going at 5 watts.
Some of the Europeans were a struggle, but seemed to me that the Caribbean
was fairly easy.  The VP8 said "no wonder you're weak" when I said "59 Mike
India QRP"!

No where as much fun as it was two weekends ago when we were down in
Cartagena Colombia using HK1/K8DD!!!! !!
