Comments:
For me, the best rates were on 80 and 160. I had a nice 2-hour CQ run on 80
that provided 200 QSOs. The rate meter on 160 peaked at 136 per hour for a
while. Missed (did not hear) a lot of common multipliers on 160. The first
few hours were rather slow. I spent too much time on the high bands for the
first 5.5 hours of op time. CQ runs provided 61% of the total QSOs.
Radio: K3
Antennae: TH6 and ATB-34 for the high bands. 40-2CD, low fan dipole, inverted
V, Marconi, and short vertical for the low bands.
This is still one of my all-time favorite contests -- plenty of activity, it
does not take up an entire weekend, and we get to enjoy this twice each year.
Thanks for the Qs and Ms. Happy 2010 to all.
73,
Gary
