Comments:
Once again a great time was had by all. We dodged
a huge bullet in that thunderstorms were predicted
pretty much for the first half of the contest. We had
to disconnect stuff an hour before the contest, but
reconnected just before thebeginning and didn't have
an issue other than noise the rest of the weekend.
While condx left something to be desired, we made
the best of it and were rather surprised with the
numbers especially on the top and bottom bands!
Primary ops by band
160- W4PRO (Iron man Jim!)
80 - K4EC and K7SV
40 - N2YO, K4EC, NR4M, K4GM
20 - K4ZW, N3UA, WK3W
15 - K4GM, KC4D, K4EC, NR4M
10 - K4GM, K4EC, NR4M, K7SV
Don't want to jinx things, but we essentially had no
technical problems during the weekend. Even
the computers behaved remarkably well!
To date we've been limited to a single rig on each
band. We had hopes to have a second rig on 40 and
20 for this contest, but continue to have problems
with isolation between rigs. Decided to delay rather
than wipe out the front end of another radio!
Thanks to all for the Qs and patience on the low
bands in the midst of mother natures crashes!
Special thanks to DR1A, NQ4I, NR3X, K8GL, AK1W,
K4PV, NW7R, NA0N, NX5M, KC0MO, NR60, VA2WA
N3ZV, K1LT, KT2Z, W0BH, NY6N, KW7Y, NK7U, ND2T
AND KD4D for six banders!
Thanks again to the Bookout family for allowing us
to put the Goat Farm through it's paces.
