Comments:
Our best effort to date and most efficient use of radio and personnel. We took a
lesson from Contest University about keeping the butts in the chair, easier with
two ops taking shifts through the entire period except for a couple joint dinner
breaks when it was quiet on the air. Radio was a stock Yaesu FT-1000MP Mark-V
without the Inrad roofing filters I still haven't gotten around to installing.
Used N1MM this time, really getting the hang of it, except for a short period
of time lost (about an hour) when the radio and logger decided to stop talking
to one another. Probably because we're using N1MM on Windows XP via Parallels
Desktop emulator on an Intel Mac Pro. Think it's time for a fully dedicated
Windows CPU for the radios. Antennas were an Alpha Delta DX-LB PLUS for 160-10,
Gap Titan for 80-10, and a rebuilt Heathkit SB-1000 linear for about 400 watts
of power. 73 WO2U for K2OAK
