Comments:
Another LP casual effort. Except for Sunday afternoon most of the Q's are S&P
with short attempts at running. Sunday afternoon I decided to see if I could
raise the Q count. Still working on my CW, I believe there has been more
improvement although unfortunately the one cell CW decoding system just blocks,
I seem to stumble on the simplest calls at times. However as the "skill"
improves CW becomes more fun all the time, and that was in full force this
time.
Need to still get a listening Antenna up for 160, even at 100 Watts I felt like
an alligator, highlight was working PJ2T, Cool.
As mentioned all ready 10 meters not happening to Europe from this part of the
West Coast, 15 was limited,with Saturday being better I think than Sunday(to
Europe that is, the JA's were putting in many fine signals here. The 20/40 still
stuck East so only limited calling on those bands, but pleased with some of the
mults worked there.
I must mention thanks to my wife Patricia who like many Ham wives assist in
having lunch or supper available at odd times(depending on the run? pile-up?
whatever), she continues to be supportive all these contesting years.
Thanks all for the Q's.
