There is never ever any moment during a contest, with the exception of
the first/last half hour on high band openings/closing, where the rx
signals drop below S9.
If not, you're antenna situation really sucks big-time. Go visit a
contest station sometime and find out.
The signal report during contests is useless unless you would state
your exact location, terrain environment, antenna type and height, AND
have a calibrated s-meter.
During a normal qso things (just) might be totally different and so is
your goal.
Let's stop the ever lasting "59 in contests" discussion.
