Definately a fun contest for me. The bands were just packed
everywhere you looked! I was very happy with the ops out there who
were very kind with QRM and moved if asked. Nice to see that kind of
comradery.
Out West here, we rely on the high bands which were very good this year
hence the reason for a few of us up in the standings. It was a treat to
work 15 again with good rates. Participation was up this year which
also helped.
I have to agree with all the 40m lovers out there that this band
SUCKS!! I lost my run frequency 3 times right on the half hour when a
Gigawatt foreign broadcast station started up with the typical "Bing
Bwong Bing" right on top of me! Oh well, I say we pin their coax before
the contest hi!
My thanks go out to my wonderful host Terry W6TG for the nice station
and great hospitality. I was never hungry!
See you all next year!
Craig, N6ED
