Just dabbled in the contest for 15 minutes - half hour here and there. Most fun
during the contest was realigning one of KG4IGC's Heathkit tube transmitters.
Literally a shocking experience. Felt like a character in "My Name is Earl" for
a minute there. I give it a B+ if you know what I mean. :-)
My only goal was to make a 100 Qs. No S&P this time except for a few Qs while
looking for an available frequency. This has not been a good contesting season
for me. I could not bring myself to spend a large portion of a weekend in the
chair this season.
Hopefully next season my interest is back, and then of course back to the only
real challenge, QRP. Oh boohoo to the
the-receiving-side-is-doing-all-the-work-and-life's-too-short-for-qrp crowd.
That's why you got that kilo bucks transceiver. You don't have that thing and
all that aluminum scraping the skies to receive S9+20 signals. :-P
Just having fun.
