2016 ARRL 10 Meter Contest
This was one of the toughest 10 meter contests I can recall. Propagation was only just fair on Saturday from the upper Midwest to SA and the Carribean and the southeastern US, but absolutely nothing heard to the west. Sunday, there were very brief, sporadic openings here and there, but most of the time, it was just noise.
The high point for me was an opening on Saturday afternoon between Wisconsin and GA, NC, SC and TN. I was able to work at least 30 stations in a relatively short time. I worked only one XE and heard no VEs at all.
Here's hoping the sunspots come back soon!
