Comments:
This is more like it! But we suffered from incomplete beverages
The storms made 160 nearly unusable, and 80 nearly so. 40 was
poor until near the end of the contest. We started the contest by
warming up a frequency on 20 with ragchewing with a mobile in Seattle.
At the drop of the flag, 9M6CT called us, followed by YB, BV, and HS.
A good sign for 20 meters which continued good all weekend. Fifteen was
almost like old times and even 10M kicked in a good European run on
Sunday. It also contributed a JA7 on Saturday who seemed as surprised
to hear us as we were to hear him!
Sure hope it holds for CW - that would be a lot of fun.
