Comments:
Well below last year's results. :( Too much local noise for me to hear below
the level of higher-power stations with good antennas. Without my reversible
Beverage, I would not have been able to contest, the noise was that bad.
Still, I worked 65 countries on a single (40M) band in one sitting,
so-to-speak, and that's worth noting. I'm always surprised to see the number
of countries that a person can reach with 100W and really, really simple
antennas. Given better conditions, I think I could achieve a single-band DXCC
in this one contest over a weekend, a goal I can aspire to.
40M vertical with 5,000 feet of ground plane + K3 +P3 + N1MM
