Comments:
I started the contest doing my usual 15m single band, but I couldn't stand not
knowing what the other bands were doing, so jumped into the fray - mostly mult
hunting in S&P mode, where I get my jollies. I'm not AB competitive because of
local electrical noises on 160, 80 (over S-7) and to a degree 40m, so I've been
staying away from AB competition. Many have the same complaints about noise, so
maybe it's time to bring back a 20-10 category, eh?
No continental EU or AF on 10m. Not many on 15m either.
Lots of Au flutter on EU sigs on 20m.
Worked many JA on 40m, hours before their sunset - never heard that before!
Getting harder to keep butt-in-chair for longish periods.
But I'll be back.
