Comments:
I opted for SOSB(A) 40m LP in order to improve S5 record while expecting poor
condx on higher bands. I am glad I was wrong about ionosphere but 40m had
lower activity. My Moxon was breaking for the first time giving poor SWR
during rotation. FT1K TX LPF relay failed on 160 m. I worked almost all the
stations heard except weak KH7CW. No zones 1,2,3,6,31,34-39. Only North
Africa caught. It is much easier on FT8 :-)
Some 36 QSO made on the other two bands on slow Sunday evening. Amazing audio
from remote NR3X and K2LE showing the best of technology progress. I wish my
local S51A was cleaner toward the end of contest. Lot of splatters over weak
signals. I had only two memorable runs with USA split from 7057 kHz and EU at
the end of contest on 7061 kHz. This prompts me for SO2R LP with CW robot!
