Comments:
This was my first outing with computer logging, and I had a ball with it.
My son gave me an ancient 33 MHz 486 COMPAQ Contura laptop that has a small
fooprint on my desk, and works great for this purpose with TR Log in DOS.
I feel that I made at least 50% more QSOs than I would have with my old
paper logging method, mostly due to the increased time available for S&P
operating. I think I made all of 12 QSOs by CQing :-)
Setup was K2 at 5w and a 55 ft dipole. The K2 matched it well on 80 through
15 meters, so bandchanging was quick and painless.
I'm really delighted with a 19K score, as it is much more than I expect.
Now I'm raring to go for the next contest.
73, Bob N6WG
