This is the first contest this fall that I didn't work a VE5 on 10m. This season
has had some amazing short skip but not this time.
Low bands were very noisy Friday night. My apologies to thos calling on 80m
that I could not hear. S8-9 static add to that the QRM and conditions were
tough.
10m didn't produce the way I hoped it would but with the SF at 122ish, it was
pretty much as expected.
Always a thrill when the YT and NT fellas call in. There was plenty of activity
from that group this time.
Really appreciate all the casual operators who get on and make this event fun.
It is always a pleasure to meet old friends and exchange seasons greetings.
VE4RAC was going to be staffed by a group of newly licensed amateurs. I am sure
they will be bitten by the contest bug and VE4 will be even better represented
in the future.
This was also the first outing with the new contest callsign VE4VT. Much easier
to say than VE4EAR and didn't have nearly the number of requests for repeats or
swapping of letters (AER instead of EAR). So I think the test drive was a
success but it is amazing how ingrained the patterns have become.
Seasons greeting to all!
