K2DSL’s first year on HF – Part 3
June 10th, 2009 by K2DSL

Part 1 discussed the raw numbers with my first year on HF. Part 2 broke the numbers down by DXCC. This post will look at the numbers by band and mode for my first year of HF operating.  I made 7,500 contacts in my first year, many of which took place during contests. By band, here’s the breakdown:

Band # Contacts
20 m 3944
40 m 1914
80 m 1445
15 m 131
10 m 29
17 m 23
30 m 13
12 m 1

The breakdown by mode results in:

Mode # Contacts
RTTY 4200
SSB 2233
CW 943
PSK31 75
PSK125 48
SSTV 1

The top band/mode combination, by nearly twice as many logged as the next band/mode combination is 20 meter RTTY at 2,169 logged contacts.

I’ll report on additional stats in upcoming posts.

73,
K2DSL
