ARRL 10m

SM2IUF, SM2LIY and SM2UVU worked the ARRL 10m contest and managed to get the 5th SM record in a row this autumn, can it get much better? I doubt it.

Comments:

We had some hope for good conditions on 10m, and they arrived, so we could claim
a new SM M/S record. First night started with some weak ionoscatter signals from
EU before band opened up in the morning. At Saturday afternoon the Aurora
arrived and helped keep the band open to NA during the evening and it was some
sporadic polar openings at night. Sunday evening was not as disturbed, but was
still some weak openings to NA in the evening with last NA QSO at 23:33z. Only
missed WY of the US states, had a hard time when K6KGP could copy
"J2W?" but then disappeared after a lot of repeats. Better luck next
time.

Thanks for the QSOs. QSL will be put in LoTW and EQSL, and if paper needed
direct via SM2LIY
