NAME: CHUCK WILLIAMS
SOAPBOX: IC-7300,Heil Pro Micro Headset,Vectronics HFT-1500 Manual Tuner (for 75
Meters only),and a modified ZS6BKW up 50 feet running N-S at 6,053 feet
elevation from Grid DN-71od in Laramie County,Wyoming.After 30 years of
participation, I think I can safely state that this event is getting tougher
than ever before! There were ZERO 10 or 15 Meter stations heard at my shack for
this years Sweepstakes!62% of all contacts were made on 40,33% on 20,and a mere
5% on 80 Meters. Not sure which was more crowded: 20 or 40,but I sure had a lot
of bookend QRM,and folks QSLing in my face even after being on the frequency for
a long time! QSB was very pronounced at times,but crowded band conditions were
the biggest challenge by far. It was nice to work fellow Grand Mesa Club members
K0UK,WT0DX,W0GJT,and W0ETT. The usual suspects hurt my rate with the completely
unnecessary "Please copy" jazz,and it was quite evident that a few
folks did not understand the contest exchange,but I was glad to walk several new
contesters and a few drive-bys through the proper exchange elements. Always a
fun event,and my favorite contest by far.72 sections worked means no clean
sweep,but I feel like I did pretty well with my 100 watt,no tower,no beam,single
wire antenna station. Thanks to all that heard and worked me. November Seven
Many Zebras Walking
