Comments:
Returned to my mother's rural home for this one, as I have S9 RFI at
home. Had to take down the antenna and beverage this year because
of logging (tree cutting kind) so I had to re-install the inverted L,
but decided against putting the beverage back up. Not sure it would
have helped, as there's pretty much zero noise at this location.
Best contest start for me, with 107 and 116 hours (good for low power),
but as usual with low power, it drops like a rock. Average 51/hour
after that for the first night, and 23/hour the entire second night.
Heard some EU on the first night, but was tough getting through.
Second night added a few multipliers. Heard JA3YBK past my sunrise
on Saturday morning, nearly S5, but he never heard me. Surprised
at no other DX out West, not even KH6.
