I enjoyed my first CQWW SSB and managed to break my endurance record. I
operated 41 hrs (previous record was 36hrs in WAE SSB 96). Missed the
first few hours due to falling asleep after consuming too much Murphy's
beer at a works function on Friday night > bad timing! Fell asleep on
the second night for a few hours whilst waiting for the kettle to boil.
High winds all weekend kept the 35ft mast down at 20ft! The 10m driven
element of the Gem Quad kindly waited until Monday morning after the
contest to snap!
My first season at multi band contesting, and boy is the learning curve
steep! Looking forward to the next one.
