Comments:
What a blast! I like this contest more and more, especially since VE1
is a mult. I was just planning for a few hours but, conditions were
really interesting. I worked several 5W QRP stations: S54AA, OK3C-3
bands, SP4FR, DL1JQD, HG6C, HB9DAX--wonderful. Had JA's calling me on
20m! I did 98% running with would you believe, an old TS-520S running
50-100W that I just fixed up with a 500 Hz CW filter. The receiver is a
dream--smooth on the ears and the rejection is great. The EU pile ups
were fantastic, many deep. I may put the FT-1000 aside for a while.
My 40m elevated vertical fell after some sticky snow got too it., so I
could not capitalize on 40m as much as I wished. In the end I stuck
in there for a bunch of hours to give the VE1 Mult. Again, great
contest and this one is added to my yearly favorite contests.
Thanks to; all for hearing my TS-520S!! and the QRP guys.
