Well, Mother Nature had it in for me also. Lost power at 0337 the
second night after just getting started for the evening run. N3DBN,
if you're out there, 599 EMA (Hi). Lost power right in the middle of
the exchange. Much of the Northeast got hit with heavy wet snow which
started tearing down trees and power lines. I was one of the lucky
ones, I had my power back in a mere 18 hrs.
Unlike previous years where I could work everything I could hear, I
now hear a lot better and missed the following DX: KH6CC (big signal
this year, would have had him sooner or later), TK5NN (not sure why),
OM5XX, SP5GRM, HK1KXA (humungous pileup). The DX window was great,
I'd like to see it retained in the future. GM3POI, best DX signal
here.
CU in the next one,
Ken Caruso
