It's been a while since I've done a full effort in the Phone Sprint. It was
pretty humbling. It was great to hear all the regular participants alongside a
bunch of folks who I suspect were getting their feet wet for the first time. I
was especially happy to hear my host for the CW Sprint, Dave VE3OI, getting
into the mix as I think this might have been his first time doing the Sprint.
As others have commented it seemed like there were too many contests going on
this weekend including a number of state QSO parties which made for some
interesting exchanges.
I think my best DX was working K9PG on 75 meters. Paul was running low power to
a 40 meter dipole, but still managed to come through Q5 (at least his call did,
the exchange took a few tries). I heard but couldn't connect with VE7 and
Kentucky.
Great fun!
