Jim, why not try 17 meters?
Most radios in use run it, and there are no contests.

Actually I've been thinking of moving it to 20 meters, but that still has
the contest problem.

Hi Jim,

I probably won't make it tomorrow as the 7th Area QSO Party is tomorrow.  I
hope conditions are better than they have been.  Do you think 17 meters
would work better?  Contests don't usually make it to
17 and propagation is often better than on 15.  The drawback is that those
with rigs more than 25 years old won't have the band and often won't have an
antenna for 17 even if they do have it on their rigs.

73,

Dave, W7OQ
