+13 Colonies:!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!CLEAN SWEEP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So, after most of the morning, like from 0400 till now K2E was playing on 20m and 10m again at 35WPM... then there was a change to 40m and they slowed down! 25 WPM! I quickley reworked my key to cootie mode and called and made it! 13 colonies on 40m with QRP(4w) and CW only! Don't know if this will be my last year of this event or not with the behaviour but it makes me look forward to doing the SKCC/NAQCC sprints as they are more laid...

+13 Colonies: HOly Cow K2E is killing me... and perhaps a few thousand other hams... they keep working WARC frequencies which not the holy trinity of the bands. (20,40,80m) the rest of the K2# stations have been really good about splitting time across the big three. K2E is still operating at 30+ WPM too and not answering straight keys which is pretty BS. So here's the thing, if you're using 20m, 18m, 15m, 10m you are no going to be heard by the east coast. And if you're only working at 30WPM no...
