A pretty pathetic weekend all around. I spent 5 hours on friday trying =
to get the KAM going, and we finally traced it to an intermittent =
voltage regulator that broke off and had to be soldered back on. Missed =
the first hour or so of the contest, and that hurt a lot. When the time =
came to move to 40m, we found a nice solid 10 over 9 noise level. Same =
with 80m. So this was a 20-10 contest only for us. 40 is usually a big =
band for us, but 2 q's is pretty sad :) I figure add several hundred =
q's from 40 and several from 80m and you get a pretty respectable score. =
Oh well... we're gonna have to work on the noise problem! =20
Not much action to EU... bands didn't open that well for us. Missed UT =
and WY for WAS.=20
Thanks for all the q's, and see everyone in NAQP CW!
