Comments:
This was a grind for most of the contest, but it was still a lot of fun. It was
nice having my fiance (Allison) around. She was quite interested in what I was
trying to do and prepared tons of food for me. I went to bed the first night at
0900Z and I was back up at 1130Z. I felt pretty good, but without much on 15M, I
figured it was going to be slow going - and it was.
I probably missed a few mults on 10 - I had zero qsos there on day one, but I
did have some fun there on Sunday afternoon with 3x5a and e51a.
Station Radios - IC 751A and IC 735 (the 735 started acting funny, so I
switched to my trusty Ten Tec Delta)
