Comments:
After working a 21 hour day on Tuesday and 70+ for the week, I just couldn't
stay up all night either night to chase DX. I made it to 3 am local time both
nights and fell asleep in my chair before finally going to bed. Not even a
caffeine jolt could keep me going unfortunately.
I almost wasn't even on the air. We had a big wind storm the night before the
contest and that morning, I saw my inverted L on the ground. I was able to fix
it, running around in the mud and cold with my suit and tie on just after
sunrise on Friday morning...
I didn't miss much in W/VE - ND, SD and LB were the only ones outside of the
YT, NU, NWT. I never did hear KH6 and KL7....but 46 states isn't bad for low
power in the suburbs. W7MEM gave me Idaho for #49 on my 160 WAS...Alaska is
now the only one I need.
In terms of DX, I worked GM, CU, CN, CT3, EA, KP2, KP4, PJ2, V3, VP9, G, OM, ON
and OZ. GM, CN and OZ were new ones for my DXCC.
My best all-daylight QSO's were all around 9am local time...KU1CW in MO, N0NI
in IA and VE1ZZ in NS.
At one point Sunday, I was spotted - but with the wrong call. So, suddenly
there was a blitz of heavyweights calling. I calmly signed my call each time,
but no one seemed to notice. I will check to see if those guys are single op
or not, because their use of packet was more than obvious.
See you in the ARRL DX CW and then the CQ 160 SSB, where I hope to do a lot
more work at night.
