Comments:
Never thought it would happen with low-power-no-tower, but the "hard" sections
came easy and the "easy" sections were hard. Good propagation sure made a
difference. Found last section on second radio and abandoned a good run
frequency.........
! ! SWEEEEEEEEEEP ! !
Never expected it to happen on SSB, always figured it would be more likely on
CW. But SSCW came up short a few sections, even with skimmer and packet.
Go figure.
10m/15m antenna is a dummy load, gonna start from scratch there. Worked 10m on
the 160m InvL, which turned out to be the best 10m xmit antenna of the available
choices. Used 40m dipoles on 15m.
Gonna be some good scores out there if the serial numbers are any indicator.
Happy with the score for the amount of time available.
73 es tnx fer the gud ears de w4kaz
