yes, its 511 CW QSOs + 100 SSB QSOs and 5230 FT8/FT4 QSOs…..
Too much FT8 for you? so, please book your flight: https://www.lufthansa.com/de/de/homepage
I don’t care if you don’t like the majority of FT8 QSOs. I’d also prefer haveing made more non -FT8 QSOs, too. Yes, I think FT8 is a heartless mode.But it’s perfect for small antennas, noisy locations and especially for familiy holidays.
And I got enough „tnx for new DXCC“ to compensate the bad feeling. 🙂
Also: many CW CQs remained unanswered. then suddenly DX showed up and made a QSO. condx were ok, but no activity. Also: beside self spots only a few manual CLuster spots. Skimmers helped a lot. If you complain about FT8 ? when was your last CW CQ?
