Thanks to all those that tried. Nice to hear the 20m segment busy with odd sounding modes. The form for results is at
http://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?formkey=cnRnbThrWFZvMEVwcFVjSmpwVHlGS3c6MA.. Let me know if you have any difficulty posting your scores. The morning session was quiet but hear a few signals at the 2300 madness hour. RSID was fun, very helpful. MFSK16/8, Olivia and DominoEX seemed to be the most common and most effective for the few Qs I had. Chip 64 and MT63 seemed to fail with people that could copy me on Dominoex or Olivia. I think for the next Multimode Madness, I will amend the rules to limit QSOs with same call sign on same band to no more than 3 modes. Also perhaps no more that three speed changes with a particular mode (e.g PSK . Dominoex, Olivia maximum of three settings per band). How did you all do ?
