Comments:
Thanks alot to Tom, W6KP, for letting me use his station again. Used 4 radios
and 4 amps (only 2 at a time.) Had a few visits from murphy. The SWR on the
10m antenna was 3:1, but luckily it was only a bad coax. Also had some
problems with my audio mixer. I get a very loud and annoying hum when I have
both radios plugged in, so I didnt use the 2nd radio the whole time. Congrats
to W4AN for a great score from the PNW.
10M: TS-950SDX - AL1500 - 6 EL KLM YAGI
Worked 11 EU and only 6 JA's. Band was open, but everyone was weak. Found a
loud 9V9HQ around 17z for a nice surprise mult. Only found one of the S5 boys
on this band..S517W
15M: TS-940 - AL1200 - 6 EL KLM YAGI
Best rate band by far. I spent too much time CQing on 15m so I missed a few of
the easy HQ mults. The JA's were unusually weak, none louder than s5.
20M: IC-775 - Homebrew amp - 6 EL KLM YAGI
The usual..open to all corners of the world the whole 24 hours. Spent a lot of
time S&Ping on this band while CQing on 15m, so I was able to find most of the
HQ stations. Had s7 noise when pointed towards EU, so pulling out the weak
EU's was very tough.
40M: TS-950S - Homebrew amp - 4 EL KLM YAGI
Was able to work about 20 euro's which helped the mult total alot. In a 15
minute stretch I worked 4 different UA0's, each in a different zone. JA's were
loud as usual, but very few showed up.
80M: TS-940 - AL1200 - 67 ft vertical
Band was very noisy, so I stayed away from it. Only worked 1 JA.
160M: TS-950SDX - AL1500 - vertical
Obviously didnt have any success on this band..only got zones 6 and 8. Tried
moving a few zone 7's there, but none of them heard me.
and who says there are no young contesters left? I know a lot of them, and I
seem to be doing ok :)
