Soapbox:
Started the contest on 20m and changed to 15m after a while. Rates
were keeping well above 100q/hr. Best rates were achieved during the 3rd hour
of the contest on 15m, when the rate meter hit well over 280q's/hour for
my best 10 min contest rate.
Knowing that the guys in Finland were running their WRTC contest stations
at Low Power, I was always on the lookout for the WRTC stations.
I was quite surprised by some of the exellent signals received by some of
these OJ stations.
Noticebly strong OJ stations were OJ8E,OJ6K and OJ8L all with nice signal
on 40m compared with a very weak OJ1W on this same band, while quite weak were
OJ6Y on 20m and OJ6W on 40m.
Final tally of OJ stations worked was as follws: 18 on 40m,
32 on 20m and 24 on 15m, for a total of 74 WRTC 2002 OJ stations worked.
Congrats to N5TJ/K1TO who piloted OJ3A to narrow win over RA3AUU/RV1AW
for another #1 spot in Finland.
Besides the many familiar callsigns worked, I was pleasantly surprised
to be able to move VU2WAP from 40m to 20m and 15m. Thanks for the QSY Miku.
TRLOG performed excellent and its 2 radio interface performed flawlessly
throughout the contest.
Overall my Q count was higher than last year, but due to 10m not really
opening up and LOT'S of usual QRN on 40, 80 and 160m down here,
the came in with a lower multiplier count than previous year.
Also the 40m activity from stateside was lower than expected this year.
Looking at some of the prelimenary numbers posted, it also looks like
there was more activity on CW.
Thanks for the QSO's and see you all in the next contest.
