Comments:
Condx could have been better but actually were quite good. Activity seemed down
a bit - rate petered out early and it wasn't thst hard to find an open freq
somewhere. I kept thinking about all the people chasing the VP8 that weren't
on. The west coast, especially the Pacific NW was weak as has been most of the
year. Only worked 1 stn each in OR/WY/WA, usually get a few in each. AZ stns
were remarkably strong throughout the contest as was the whole southern tier of
the US.
Slept thru Sat AM and was in/out Sat night. A couple more well placed hours
would have helped the score. :)
Missed VO1, VE1/5/7 plus the 4 untouchables, got all the states.
DX heard/called but not worked included LY, SM, EA, EA6, UR, UA2, F, ON, PA,
OZ, OE, P33, I, YN, V31, PY, CX, PJ4, GM. Most i thought were strong enough to
work.
had 55 5pointers and 32 10 pointers, mostly on Friday night. DX worked: 9a,
C6, CE, CM, CT, CU, DL, EI, G, HA, HC, HH, HI, HK, IT9, KH6, KP2, KP4, LX, OK
(6!), OM (3!), PA, PJ2, S5, UA, XE, YU, YV, ZF.
Highlights included working a very loud RW1A on 1 call, working CE3CT who had a
good signal and seemed to hear well (almost like K7CA?), working a loud HC2AO,
having YV1KK call *me*.
73 and tks for the Qs,
greg/na8v
