NOT BAD FOR TWO VERTICALS,A R-5 FOR 10,15,20 AND A REFURBISH AND VERY OLD HF2V
AT 5 FEET FROM THE FLOOR(NOT ROOF).I WASN'T GOING TO PARTICIPATE BUT THURSDAY I
DECIDED TO GIVE IT A TRY,THE RESULTS IS THAT I DOUBLE MY LAST YEAR TOTAL
SCORE.AS YOU CAN SEE THE QSO'S TOTAL DOESN'T MATCH WITH THE SCORE I GOT,THE
ANSWER IS THE MULT. TOTALS.IS HARD TO GO S&P WITH A VERTICAL LOOKING FOR MULT.
AND SUDDENLY FIND OUR SELF IN THE MIDDLE OF A PILEUP WHILE LOOSING TIME TT WE
CAN SPENT RUNNING,SO THERE IS THE COMPROMISE!.I HEARD NP4Z WORKING MULTS. SO
EASILY WITH A BEAM I SOLD TO HIM ,WHILE I WAS WITH MY TINNY SIG WASTING TIME
TRYING TO WORK THE SAME MULT.I FAIL TO READ THE RULES(ONLY MY 2ND CQWW)AND I
DIDN'T NOTICE THAT THE 10 MINUTES RULE WASN'T IN EFFECT FOR SOLP STA. SO I
WASTED TIME ROLLING UP AND DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF A DEAD BAND.FINALLY I TOOK
MUCH TIME SLEEPING.MY ONLY REGRET IS THAT I DIDN'T HAVE A ELMER TO TEACH ME
THESE THINGS AND MAYBE LOST A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO BE IN THE TOP SCORES WITH MY
OLD AND RUSTY VERTICAL.WELL MAYBE NEXT YEAR :-) CONGRATS TO THE REAL OPS. AND
PILEUPS RUNNERS(WHICH I'M NO HI HI)
