Learning SO2R. Unfortunately, as the hours went by, and the more "phlegmatic"
the operator became, the more SO1R it still was to become. :(
Highlight: a 2 hour opening to NA on 15m on Saturday night.
Where were all the JA's? Way too few NA logged on 40m, too. :( Not happy with
80m-160m qsos either. Must put more effort on low bands on CW, although the
condx don't look too promising.
At one point the computer started an "intensive discussion" with radio 2,
having almost no time for anything else - like for example adding qsos.
Fortunately the interface problem was found and solved, cutting off some
valuable operating time, though.
Without the absolutely obligatory break on Sunday night I probably wouldn't
have made it to the end. For the last hours I watched somebody else playing
with the radio(s) and the keyboard, using my hands. Luckily enough, "he"
seemed to be quite developable - so I'd better make a deal with him for the CW
weekend, too. Have to tell him not to forget the low bands either. :)
