I have never operated in this contest before. I spent Saturday in the NAQP
RTTY contest and shut down about 10 p.m. Switched to 6 meters and could not
believe all the activity! In 8 seasons, I have never heard the band so good.
It was great to have guys in DM65 and DM33 answer my CQs. I only worked one
station in CO, one in TX, nothing in 6-land, nor any northern W7s. At times
K2DRH in IL was pinning the needle! Lots of short skip too from PA, MD and
VA.
A Diamond 4-element beam that W1JR gave me sat in pieces on the ground all
weekend. I had spent Friday night getting my 15 meter delta loop repaired for
the RTTY contest. I might have made the wrong choice :-)
