Comments:
First time I ever participated in this contest. New year's weekends have always
been filled with conflicts and this year was no exception as my wife and I
hosted a dinner party Saturday evening.
I listened Saturday morning at the start of the contest and heard a few stations
but I only managed to work one in EN71. I called several others but they just
kept on CQing. The band went completely quiet after that.
The rest of my contacts were made Sunday morning before I had to leave for
church. All search & pounce, and I could hear better than I was being heard
as several out-west stations had difficulty copying me. But I was using a 1000'
Beverage to the west!
I fat-fingered a few of the grids and I do apologize to those stations who had
experienced my "AGN" requests. Otherwise I had fun for the short time
that I was able to participate. Next year I will try to at least keep Saturday
evening free!
73, Sam W4PK
