First time above 4,000 QSOs!
We've been above 3,000 QSOs for four years now, but with the recent great
conditions, Mike N7MH thought we could do better than our usual two or three
transmitter operation. In the last week he pushed us to get seven transmitters
ready, and we had up to SIX operators a few times, although most often was only
two or three operators. We only had three amplifiers, and some transmitters were
only one mode. Conditions were not as good as last week, but we were pleased to
break 4,000 QSOs. The out-of-California participants certainly didn't have a
hard time finding or working us. The 5,000 QSOs level set by N6O (Congrats!)
will have to wait for another year...
We started with great rates of 280, 220, 220, but then it dropped, and the only
other highlight was a 300 rate at 03Z when we finally went to 80m. Sunday wasn't
as slow as might be feared, and 10m was surprisingly good with lots of SSB
activity.
