Comments:
It was fun!
I was able to op at the W1KM station with a few bigger antennas than I have at
home:
80M: 4 square
40M: 3el @ 120ft, 4square
20M: 5el @ 90ft, 4el@ 130ft
Beverages for NE, S, and W
Two Orions, two Acom amps, MK2R SO2R controller.
The MK2R and SO2R setup worked flawlessly. This op had more problems running
the setup than the setup had working; I hope you don't have numbers 54, 144,
164, 228, 232, 234, 239, 244, or 245 from me- they aren't in my log. Major
source of SO2R errors was in working someone and not hitting the <ENTER> key
and making sure they are in the log- when you "hover" to get the new call in
the entry window, it overwrites the old info.
I did have to deduct 5 QSOs from my raw score log, as 3 QSOs had not transpired
for the station that I worked.
4 hour QSO totals: 53, 63, 59, 62.
This contest needs more activity! There were only 53 unique stations in the
229 QSOs, and 5 stations accounted for 20% of the QSO total.
Thanks for the QSOs, and thanks to W1KM for the use of his KB station.
