Comments:
Started out prepared to do a mixed mode effort because I thought conditions
would have me run out of stations but since that never exactly happened I just
stuck with CW. The thought of all that SSB QRM motivated me somewhat also.
Spent Friday resolving a s/w mixed mode issue but that wasn't needed. Wx here
was forcasted no storms and that was good.
I have not operated this contest seriously since 2002 but since all my antennas
were up and working didn't want a good contest to go by.
Never heard the WRTC stations until a lot of time had gone by (guess we were
running on the same band?) and now that I think about it I maybe only heard a
handful of WRTC stations calling CQ the whole contest, most called me. Sent my
log in immediately after the contest to WRTC.
20 meters was very good and a nice surprise considering how it sounded earlier
in the week. 15 wasn't bad but I don't think I worked any WRTC stations on
that band (only big stations/HP guessing). 40/80 were pretty good but noisy as
can be expected. Ended up moving about 4 stations for zone mults.
Activity was pretty good on CW-thanks to all for a good contest and hope the
WRTC turns out well.
