Comments:
As many of you know, I'm semi temporarily inactive these days due to so many
kids I can't keep their names straight, excessive travel, and this sunspot
thing.
After missing my first major contest in a decade or so ( CQWW SSB) I had to do
something competitive for CW, and dedicated last week to antenna work. It
didn't work out. I flew back from a "get on the next plane" job on Thanksgiving
and started fixing antenna Friday before the contest, even walking a mile or so
of Beverages with a 3, 5 and 7 year old in tow.
Well, the 160 TX ant seemed to work and the Beverages were mainly up and most
of the RX ant switching even worked. That along with no sunspots of note and
some almost mandatory daytime activities made single band 160 obvious. Plus I'm
a lowband nut.
The 513 Qs includes 87 USAs which of course don't add to the score, and 339
EUs. I figured before the contest that 400 EUs might break K3BUs record, and
seems I was right but I just couldn't do it this weekend.
Was nice having zones 1, 30, 31, 32 and 38 call me the last night! Missed 11,
12 and 13 -- figured I'd get at lest one or two of them but no luck!
