I managed on 80m SSB at 07:25z the other day. Ok is was 120w, but I got a
good 59, so I think 10 might have made it.
I tried, for an hour. There was simply no chance against all the
stronger, mainly Southern Europeans trying for their 3rd or 4th band
contact. When they did come up a bit stronger and some of the Eastern EU
faded, they went off to 7.29MHz to work the USA. All this was SSB. CW
was not an option for me as unfortunately, VP6DX never seemed to slow
down in their CW for those of us limited in ability to around 15WPM. I
can see why as they make more contacts that way, but the speed they were
going it was nearly impossible for me to tell what was going on, when to
call etc.
