The two peak rate hours were on the Saturday afternoon, with the highest hourly rate being 187 QSOs. On both days the first QSOs were between 06-07z. On Saturday the last QSO was just after 18z, whereas on Sunday 10m remained open until about 1930z. Clearly from the dips in rate graph, it can be seen that Sunday was the Multiplier hunting day!" | ||||
