Comments:
What a difference one week can make. Compared to the CW version of the NAQP, I
had no ten meter opening, minimal activity on 15 meters, almost no activity on
160 meters and, consequently, a significant decrease in the number of
multipliers for this contest. This was, for all intents, a two band contest
(20 & 40) for me. The rates were breathtaking at times (190+/hour rates) mixed
with periods of sheer boredom. The pile-up on me was like being the object of a
DXpedition at times! (Good training for the TX5C upcoming DXpedition 8>) ). My
80 meter inverted Vee is resonant in the CW subband, so I needed to use an
antenna tuner on 75 meters. There was significant RF in the shack from this
mismatch causing the computer to hiccup frequently. It was fun to communicate
with all the usual suspects and a pleasant surprise to find some new calls
joining this contesting fraternity activity. Thanks for all the Qs. See you
in the next one! Best regards, Arnie N6HC
