I have no idea how things were in Europe.  But from here on the West 
Coast of the USA, all of the 40 and 20M PSK freqs, and most of the CW 
freqs as well, were completely overrun by contesters.  It was nearly 
impossible to operate digital other than in the contest.  Nor did hardly 
anyone do so.  The band plan went out the window.  RTTY stations were 
even up around 14076.5-079.5.
