Comments:
Had plenthy of murphy before the contest - had to replace a pin diode in one of
the radios and after trying a couple of different amps - I ran out of time to
have everything checked out with the amps before the contest. Made the decision
to run A power.
40 meters was productive - but very noisy the first night. Made it hard to do
any two radio work as it took full attention to work many of the stations
calling. The band was much better in the morning and the second night.
Activity seemed down a little on Sunday.
Perhaps with better conditions on 40 - it would be have been possible to beat
the low power record (K7JA from NP4Z) - but not this year.
KL7 was my last section.
