Soapbox:
All S&P casual operation. Just received my call in October, used to be KG8W,
new call seems to work well in pile-ups, much faster than old one. Tuning
around the bands, had to be careful not to confuse EA8EA, EA9EA, and EW8EW.
Weather was too nice (sunny and 60's here in Mich) to operate much during
the day. Spent Sunday afternoon setting up 160M antenna for next weekend
then made 1 contact with VA1A near end of contest.
