Comments:
A fun weekend!
Missed DE, NU, NWT, YT, and LB. Never did hear a signal on 10M, although on
Sunday I was there at the top of every hour. Several times I called 5 or 6 CQs
on 10M, but never made a QSO. Was able to run Europe on 15M for an hour or so
Sunday morning, but not enough stations there to sustain a longer run. Should
have been on 40M earlier both Sat/Sun, but was too busy working on 15/20M.
With the big Patriot game on Sunday, took 3 1/2 hours off time to watch it.
Don't know yet whether that hurt- or helped- the score, but will have to take a
look at it.
Work kept me away from home all week, so I wasn't able to brush up on my
fledging SO2R skills; it took me several hours to settle into the groove. For
RTTY, SO2R ability adds a great deal to both the score and my enjoyment of the
contest.
Thanks to everyone for the QSOs, and to Greg W1KM for the use of his KB
station.
