Comments:
The good news: great propagation, no line noise, no problems with
stamina, no huge frequency fights, everybody ID'd, nothing blew up.
The bad news: lotsa problems with mike audio/hum/2-radio switching,
had so much fun on 15 I forgot about 10, was waaaay too casual about
multipliers.
EU was loud on 160 -- gotta get a better TX antenna on that band.
Got stomped by N0FW in every pile and now I see he was low power??!
Ouch. But my noise was down and the low bands were a lot of fun.
I ran a one-radio contest until the first morning because of
problems switching my microphone with my 2 radio box. Very stubborn
problem that I have not been able to fix. While laying down for
30 mins sleep the first night, it came to me that I could plug
my little hand mike to the 2nd radio and do 2-radio that way.
Up until that point I had not been serious because I thought I
was losing too much.
My 10 and 15 antennas are on the same rotor -- not a problem in
the high spot years, but big problem when there is no direct EU
on 10. Can't fix that. Very bad mult on 10, just couldn't
work anything at all the first day when 15 was so good and my
2 radio capability was so limited.
Great to work all the DX-peditions -- was fun chasing you guys
around! And what a job by the K3LR guys -- way to go!
