Comments:
What blast!  Great conditions all weekend, no power failures, no station
failures.  Thanks to a new TR-Log 6.85 Beta, which worked flawlessly, the
weekend was more interesting than usual, especially Sunday.  I had a horrific
first few hours with rates barely at 60/hour due to terrible intermod in the
radios.  There always enough strong signals within a few Khz that obliterated
the passband for any target signals less than S6-8.  It was worse on 15 and 20
where my numbers show the story.  I couldn't even pounce on running stations
because I couldn't copy the exchange through the intermod.  Back to the
previous radios for Phone.
I was very impressed with the quality of fills, and I got lots of practice
asking for fills!  Almost everyone just sent the single exchange element that I
asked for and they only sent it once (unless I asked for more than three times
when some people then sent it twice).
73,
Ed - W0YK
