Comments:
Had fun! I planned to operate more at night, but I fell asleep and woke about at
1230Z. Oops! I love this contest. I spent a lot of time trying to work Europe
on the high bands because it was fun. My rate could have been much better if I
stuck it out on 20 more. But it was fun working Europe on 15 and even 10. I
bagged DA0HQ at 2158 on 10 ssb and got them a minute later on 10 CW. That was it
for Europe on 10, but it was really neat. I really think being two blocks from
the ocean makes radio pretty interesting. I've heard a lot of Europe in the
mornings on 15 CW (very weak) where as I didn't here them back home with a
better antenna.
I don't have many antennas set up at the new QTH. I spent an hour Saturday
morning before the contest setting up some wires. I went with dipoles on 10, 15
and 20 and verticals for 80 and 40. I hope to get my tribander up soon.
I may be on from an island for IOTA, but it isn't looking too promising right
now.
73,
Nate/N4YDU
