Times change. ClubLog publishes a weekly summary of uploaded DX contacts at: https://clublog.org/dxreport.html. For this past week, PSK was 0.11% of all those contacts. This is a representative sample (not scientific) of activity by those who use ClubLog.
FT8/4 made up about 61%, SSB & CW just short of 38%. This gives us a pretty good idea of where to find the activity. The summary includes other modes along with other information. You may not like it, but it is a close approximation of reality. RTTY fans (0.69% in this summary) can't believe there are so few operating RTTY, except during contest weekends. If one picks a mode with such small numbers, one can't expect to find much activity. I use multiple radios, one of which is dedicated to FTn. This allows me to make CW/SSB contacts while the other radio is making FTn contacts. FTn has filled in a lot of band-slots and even States on 12m toward 9BWAS for me, with little skill and minimal effort. If one pays attention to FTn details, one can make even more contacts there. I get tired of clicking. I don't like to move my hands off the home keys. 73, Bill, K8TE -- Sent from: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/ ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
