Comments:
Not our best effort but still a great weekend as usual with a few issues -
operator shortage, one op was just coming off an illness that affected the
voice, magic 2 el. wire beam on 80 M did not work (feed line issue, no time to
fix), conditions were apparently fair on the low bands but given the antenna
issues, did rather poorly there and the high bands were amazing - 15 was almost
like the ole days! 10 M open to Eu on Sunday - wow what is the bottom of the
sunspot cycle coming to? Think we all got more sleep that we planned and did
you hear, the New England Patriots (American Football) won again - now 8 wins!
And one other interesting footnote, the Boston Red Sox are what we call in
America, the World Champs, after winning the World Series following the CQ WW
SSB test for 2007!
Okay, so I was a little distracted! (Hey Matt, AD1C - what do you think about
them Rockies now?)
Thanks to all that called and answered our calls during this wild weekend! This
station continues to help the new ops getting into contesting - love that aspect
of the hobby and being able to provide a nice setup to facilitate a good
experience.
Thanks to Glen, K1GW for flying up from NC to play radio!
73, Mark, K1RX
