Comments:
Decided to try and maximize the mobile score this year rather than cover a lot
of counties. Score is approximate as I logged everything with pencil and paper
and have to get them into Excel. QSO totals are roughly correct, mults are the
approximate average between the two county line logs. Since scores must be
calculated on a county by county basis, it is not possible to post them here on
3830.
Many thanks for the 100's of out of state participants that took the time to
work the in-state ops. Conditions could have been better, but had some nice
runs on 20 meters. Worked one single Floridian on 15 meters. Got no response to
CQ's for a ten minute period with a little over an hour to go, so packed it in
at that point. Probably need to have an 80M antenna for that last hour.
Snagged a few Colorado counties for mults, mostly from W0ETT/M. Got Eagle
county from W0HXB/M. Best catch was Custer county on 20M SSB backscatter with
K0IZ. Thanks K0AE, N0AC, N0HF, AD1C, W0RIC, W2UP, K0FX, W0CO, N0TA, KT3M and a
few other fixed ops for additional mults.
Rig was a K-3, two MFJ hamsticks for 20 and 40 meters mag-mounted on the roof,
and a hustler 15M whip on a trailer hitch mount. Rigged up a back-seat
operating position on the right side, similar to what K0MF and I used last
year. The Setup was useable in motion (with a separate person driving), but I
chose to only operate from two fixed locations, both of which were county
lines.
