First time I can honestly say that I was disappointed following a contest.
Band conditions were the pits! I did a great deal of listening and found that the stations I heard had already been put into the log on most, if not all of the three bands available. Some were not considered since the strength of the signal on the lower two bands did not really allow for any contact on my highest - 70cm.
Six was the biggest disappointment -- I was expecting a good number of grids on this band and worked TWO -- FM29 & FN20, and very few total contacts. Truly not what was being expected.
My worst entry as a single op that I was at odds whether or not to send in.
Maybe June? September? 2011? -- KC2TA
