239 QSO's X 31 mults = 7409 pts.
I ran the contest low power. I wanted to see how well I could do without
using the amp. Barry, W2UP got a big jump on the field and did a great
job. Tyler, K3MM, was also very strong. The propagation was very different
than last year, giving the East Coast an advantage for a change.
I had trouble getting into any kind of rhythm and seemed all thumbs at the
keyboard. Even if I would have ran the amp or had the propagation, I don't
think I could have kept up with either one of those guys. They are premier
RTTY ops and deserve congratulations.
Maybe next year I'll run high power and see if I can give them more
competition.
Hope to see everyone in BARTG even though I will be on for only a limited
amount of time due to work.
I'm thinking about going Multi-Multi in BARTG, so if I give you a lower
serial number on a different band don't ask me why. hi
Updated my website with pictures of some of the plaques I've won over the
years in RTTY contesting. If anyone's interested, go to the contest summary
page from the RTTY page or Ham Radio page or directly to:
