Comments:
On Saturday the weather was hotter than the bands. High temperature was 95
degrees but a stiff south wind helped. As a single-op unassisted I stop to
operate and I don't like to burden the car with running the A/C when stopped, so
that wind helped. 20m was not in good shape with lots of QSB and weak signals.
Between stops and while driving I tried some 20m SSB but conditions were just
not good for a mobile. I did try some 80m CW after dark with some success, but
the QRN from local storms and Ida made the band difficult. On Sunday,
conditions were better with 20m in fair shape. I had rain for the first half of
the day and at one stop at POT/SHA I had some type of rain static, or tire
static, that wiped me out for 30 minutes. Sorry for those who called, but I
just could not hear a thing. At the end of the contest the 20m pile up from
BRO/ATC was ferocious but I hope that I was able to work everyone who called.
Thanks to Bob, W0BH, and his team for organizing a really fun QP. 73, Jon W0ZQ
