Comments:
My first ARRL Sweepstakes CW. Really enjoyed it. Made my goals. Ran for at least
half the time. Conditions were great but QRN heavy on Sunday. Could not hear
much on 110 and 15 but 80 and 40 were hopping. Worked 75 out of 84 US and
Canadian provinces. Had trouble working into western Canada but worked all the
western states and Alaska and Hawaii. Stayed up overnight Sat into Sun. Seemed
like I had 40 all to myself and ran the whole time until about 9 am when I
stopped to catch a few Zs. Wast great experience and fun. Thought I'd have
trouble with the exchange but after a little while I settled in and things went
very smoothly. This contest was a good tune up for the CQ WW DX CW in a few
weeks. Thanks to Ray and Bud fro all the prep materials and the AR cluster
filter and for all the FRCer contacts.
