Comments:
There's not much more to be said about the incredible conditions
in the WW RTTY, so I won't. I think the loud, crashing noise I hear
is from records falling all over the world.
I operated from the Goshen ARC station in Goshen, IN. I visit my family
and friends there every autumn and included the contest weekend in this
year's trip. I wanted to do this last year, but an ill wind blew
down the club's tower, so I had to postpone it. This year I planned a
20M operation, but watched in amazement as the SFI climbed all
week prior to the contest, so I changed to 15. Could have done 10, but
I have a nostalgic attachment to 15 from my Novice days back in 1958
when I lived in Goshen.
I want to thank the GARC members for letting me use their station and
especially my old friend Sandy, W9JOE, for cleaning up the shack and
making a lot of desk space available for me and my gear. Like a gas
in a vacuum, I expanded to fill it all, but it was nice to spread out
and not be cramped.
Thanks to everyone who worked me for making it a fantastic weekend.
CU in the WW CW and maybe a bit in the SSB if 10M does an encore.
73,
Kermit, AB1J/9 in the land of soybeans and Amish buggies.
