"20 meters was a madhouse and almost impossible for us to do much, especially to Europe through the East Coast. Every frequency was already four deep with stations and if we called CQ, it was unlikely that we could copy anyone who called us. Our crew tried hard to make something happen on 20 meters, but we just couldn't get the job done. I think the guys did as good as it was possible to do with the hardware they had available." - K5NA

"Working Europe on 20 meters through the East Coast under these conditions is pure torture. I probably spent too much time on 15 meters and 10 meters as a result, but I just couldn't take any more of it on 20 meters. It was frustrating that multipliers were also down on the low bands compared to my last all-band phone effort in 2004." - N5AW

"I almost lost it last night when the connector came off of my Double Bazooka antenna and I had to go out at 2:00 AM CST to repair it, but repaired it I did and on with the rest to make four Japanese contacts immedialty afterwards. Well worth the effort with the flashlight!" - AD5VJ
