Comments:
As usual, I was impressed with the quality of many of the Ops. Glad to see some
that were not geezers!
My objective was 1,000 Q's. I made 1,009 but there were 12 Dupes.
Clinched the Sweep about noon Sunday. It came my way without special
attention except for NWT which took a little work. Lucky I guess.
I stayed up late to take advantage of the first night's action and went to
bed about 2am (EDT) when I ran out of energy. 40m is my weakest band and it
showed again. I tried to compensate by working 15 and 20 a bit more. I'm very
glad they were open.
Operation was about 80% S&P and 20% running. I simply don't have the
antennas to sustain really extended LP runs with decent rates.
Cheers to all participants.
