Yearly Stats

2020 in all categories showed an increase in numbers over 2019 which is due to a combination of things. I was more active especially in the big DX contests and the NA QSO Parties. Perhaps the sunspots are starting to return. There were several days with a SF of over 100 later in the year although it didn't last long enough. My strong local noise here continues to be a factor though, and without it, the numbers would have been even better for 2020. In looking at the sunspot cycle graph on my propagation page, it definitely shows the increase in sunspots during 2020.

The more years I add to this table, the more a graph of its values resembles a graph of the sunspot cycle, especially the figures dealing with DX on the higher bands - 20 meters and above. Asian and European QSO's most of all. However it also naturally depends on the amount of on-air time I put in each year. Because of the various NAQCC on-air events, I was a bit more active in 2005-2014. Then after I retired as NAQCC VP in 2014, my available on-air time increased even more. However other interests that were dormant during the NAQCC years surfaced and I didn't use as much of the available on-air time. Also another long dormant interest, model railroads, took away even more on-air time. Even with the amount of activity not factored in though, I think the DX stats portray the cycle quite well.

A red number indicates the highest number for that category.
