Comments:
First attempt at SO2R! Still confusing, it'll take a while to get the hang of
it.
Special Thanks to K5NA and K5DU for their wonderful hospitality! Amazingly, I
coughed my way through bronchitis and a hoarse voice to finish with 1308 (1325
- 15 dupes) to break the 200K barrier. Personal best for me!
Not only that, but my first clean sweep! Much thanks to VE8AE for calling me
on 10m Sunday! I actually took time out Sunday morning to hunt down PR, worked
him, then found WP3R right up the band for "insurance". I finally went back to
calling CQ, only to be answered after my first call by NP4A/M in his driveway!
Three in a row, what a hoot!
I took 3 hours off from 0900z to 1200z Sunday, then ended 3 hours early to get
home and nurse my lungs and throat back to health. Still can't talk today.
I had a blast this weekend, thanks to everyone who participated! By the way, I
don't think I've EVER heard so many MN stations on at once - I think I worked
'em all! Great job Y'all!
