Comments:
There is no meters like 80 meters for this contest with another year of bottom
of the cycle propagation. 20 never really got going for me and my hopes for
anything on 15 and 10 were wasted.
My worst out of the gate hour in 4 years. I didn't get one SSB QSO to move to
CW though I did get KC8YEJ to move at least QRB and make my single contacts on
15 and 10.
Working N8M and seeing that he was ahead always gets me to bear down. I have a
Sweepstakes mentality where I focus on rate and let the mults come. Looks like
I need to work on my mult moving as I got smoked on multipliers. K2KW really
kicked sand in my face by coming to Michigan and beating me with low power.
All in all I still had a lot of fun. I really want to be able to do this
contest when all the bands come into play. 75M didn't leave a bad taste in my
mouth though I did run into some QRM from somebody on 40M. It was great to see
all the activity from the Blossomland guys in Berrien County. In the QSO
distribution in my log they were tied with Oakland county and I only had more
QSOs with Washtenaw and Wayne counties. Go BARA!
