Comments:
Condx very good & lots of stations participating. Strange how the difficult
Sections differ versus the CW Contest. VY1's and VO's were readily available,
but NV, SC and VE2 were hard to find (for me). My last Section was NV. Found
it odd that a couple stations (one, a VE4) thanked me for being their first Ohio
on mid-Sunday afternoon! Heard a couple stations begging for WPA!! Glad to
hear quite a few YL's and a number of teens & younger.
This year's excuse for my not doing the full 24 hours: My XYL went out late
Sunday afternoon to run some errands and left her lights on while parked and it
ran down her battery. Had to go get her re-started & it cost me a couple hours
of prime time near the end of the Contest. She didn't want to hear anything
about waiting for AAA!!! :-(
