Comments:
With the added strategy of qtcs, this is really a fun contest. (I was left with
543 unset QTCs although I sure tried to send them!). 80/40 were really noisy
the first night hurting my results there compared to last year. I also managed
to oversleep on Sunday morning, and lost other key time for a meeting. Still
overall I improved by 50% over last year (operating as n2qt/4). With the time
for QTCs, the second radio did not get as much use as in other contests, but it
was still handy (especially during slow periods where it gave me something to
do).
Some issues with relearning N1MM's handling of QTCs (gotta remember that CTRL
will force save QTCs that have questionable callsigns). I did end up with a
page of notes on corrections to enter manualy.
