Comments:
When I got up on Saturday, a shipment of Murphy had arrived, un-noticed. When I
opened it up, out it sprang and I really never got a full handle on it. Suffice
it to say that without my ANC-4 helping get around the noise and relay switching
issue, I wouldn't have had even this few QSOs.
It was really tough to get a run going. The bands souned like mush throughout
the weekend. Still there were many fun moments and thank you to each and every
one of you who gave me a QSO, went through crazy lengths to get the exhange
across correctly, and BIG kudos for those who spotted me; it really helps when
you're a little pistol station like mine.
I ran into an issue with some skipped numbers in my log because I was also
monitoring my station log via a network connection on another computer. My
main computer had Writelog freeze and so when it came back up there were QSOs
with a red D next to them. After some panicking I realized that as long as I
kept everything in sequence all was OK since my reported score is not related
to the number I gave out.
Still it was a pain, but I learned some cool things about Writelog networking.
73!
