Comments:
10m has always been one of by favorite bands even in the bottom of the cycle.
For the few hours I worked it, it was a blast! I love those very short 30 second
openings, almost like meteor scatter or something. I worked the contest on
Friday evening and some on Saturday. The Friday night openings were a ton of
fun. NE, TX, FL etc. I even heard KH7M, but never could connect with him. This
is the band that every one says is dead until every gets on it... My 10m beacon
was Bob, N4BP. I knew that the band was about to open when I heard Bob on
28.023.
I live in the upstate of South Carolina and we got hit with our first snowstorm
of the winter. The snow fell on Saturday night the power went off on Sunday
morning at 11:30 am and it didn't come back on until Monday at 2 pm. I missed
all of Sunday. My antennas became 4-5 feet lower, so my ants were almost on the
'.ground. Running a IC-751 to wires at 6-9'
Thanks to all for the Qs. Dave Edmonds, WN4AFP
Go Swamp Foxes!
