Comments:
What a blast. 10m was marvelous. Makes me wonder what it would have been
like if I had been contesting back in the early 90s, or during the peak of the
last cycle. Couldn't find a good frequency for a [modest] station to call CQ
on until I got above 28.150. I was surprised at how many ops answered my
CQs.
My 18 hours were spread out over the whole 48-hour period. I operated
sporadically in 4-5 hour spurts. Got my beauty rest both nights. Spent
plenty of quality time both days with the family and enjoyed our belated
Thanksgiving feast.
I didn't maximize zones or countries worked -- it was all about having fun. I
set up VE7CC to work with N1MM and was amazed at all of the data flowing in.
Near end of the contest I saw an actual spot for VE7CC and worked him... it
seemed only fitting.
I sure had a helluva lot of fun! Thanks to all of the DX ops [and the
DXpedition stations] for the good times!
