Rigs: Elecraft K4D, IC-7851, IC-7610
Antennas: 10-40 Yagi Stacks, 80 meter 4 SQR, 160 vertical.
Amplifiers: Acom 2000a
Comments: I used the Icom pair for about 12 hours, then the Elecraft K4d the
rest of the contest. Good thing I switched as the computer running the Icom rigs
shut down unexpectedly a few hours after the switch.
What do I think of the K4d as a contest rig?
--It is in a league of its own as a CW contesting radio. The audio quality and
pile up handling characteristics are the best I have ever used.
--The panadapter provides situational awareness and is a diagnostic quality
tool. The Icom rigs are good also but the K4d really shined in this contest.
--The filtering creates moments to hear the weak signals on the low bands that I
would not copy on the other rigs. I even like the APF that Wayne has created.
--The ability to put receiver B on a second monitor is very helpful.
--The KPod is a very useful tool for managing unruly pileups as I used it to
control the RIT.
I really appreciate the assistance from N6TV before the contest to get all of
this set up.
How were band conditions?
Conditions were tough on Friday night and through Saturday. There was something
going on with propagation. Late into Saturday night, the bands changed. The Low
bands were a lot quieter with superb propagation. 10-20 really shined the second
24 hours of this contest for me.
The biggest surprises and most exhilarating moments were in the last hour,
working Singapore LP on 40 and having 80 open globally before my sunset. Wow!
