Comments:
Only a limited amount of operating time Saturday afternoon for this one,
but it sure was fun! Hard to believe I'd say that about a CW contest just
a few years ago, but I'm beginning to like CW.
First contact was N0AT for my only 10m QSO. Most contacts were S & P, but
I managed to make a few calling CQ. That's something that is going to
take more practice.
SECC members were out in force, but I didn't work 'em! Worked only KU4OZ,
who is on my team.
