Comments:
Based on some of the comments I got during and after the contest
I am sure there are several that might be surprised that my score
is not larger than it is given that I was so far ahead in QSOs for almost
the entire contest. There are several reasons for not having a huge
score but the overriding one is not having the propagation to work
much DX. The only really good opening to any DX happened at the
end of the contest when I was just running out of operating time.
One of my big concerns going into the contest was the forecast thunderstorms
predicted for Sunday. If I lived about 75 miles west of where I
do my off time plans would have been almost perfect as there were storms
out there most of the day on Sunday.
The only real chance we have from here in Texas is if at least 15 meters opens
for us - so when we never got anything to speak of to Japan and Europe on 15
meters it was just one big North American rate fest for me and that was fun. I
was considering going 15m single band due to some problems with some of my 20
and 40 meter antennas but I am glad I did not. There are clearly many newly
upgraded hams on the HF bands and I hope they stick around for a few years and
get to play at the sun spots return - as I think they will have a blast.
WM5R did a great job from the W5KFT station. That station is
about 40 miles north of me. It will be fun to figure out when
and how he worked 50 more prefixes than I did. I suspect it has
something to do with his rare prefix - but it might also be that
he was on 20m some in those last hours of the contest when the
band was finally open to Europe. Our scores are only 0.4% apart.
And now the numbers......
