Comments:
A good contest once again. The high bands were open well (I notice the DX is
always a few S points stronger when they're not eligible for contest QSOs) and
also open quite late. Conversely, it was hard work getting the QSOs in on 40
and 80.
I was upset when my trusty TS850 failed a couple of hours in. I was about to
give up completely, but changed my mind and rushed off in the car to 'borrow' an
FT920 from my local club station. Then I realised my keying leads were
non-compatible, and sent CW with the paddle for the rest of the contest.
(Apologies for poor paddle sending!)
Rather difficult on 10m as always, although pleased to get what I did, and
managed a few 5 band QSOs with some of the guys.
This year's SAC was different from previous ones as this time I could put a few
more names and faces to callsigns, being post-WRTC. Great to hear all those
callsigns once again :-)
73,
