Comments:
A pretty fun contest. Decided to go LP and that might have been a mistake.
Just hate to put that many hours on the amp. Hence, I S&P almost
exclusively, except for a couple runs on 20M. Didn't put in a full effort and
didn't get started until early Sat afternoon. Only heard a few US stations on
10M and one strong CX station (my only contact). 15 Meters was good into EU on
Sunday, and I think I missed checking it on Saturday. 20M was obviously the
money band. Had fun Sunday at dusk working JAs and Asiatic Russians. Even
heard a China station, but he didn't hear me. Fun working a couple VKs on 40M
Sunday, as late as 9 am. Amazing how really open the bands are, and you don't
know it until some contest like this brings everyone out and onto the bands. I
think this was my first somewhat serious effort on this contest, with N1MM
logging and all of that. It should set me up with a good baseline for the
future. But might really consider using HP next time. Thanks for all the fun
and Q's.
