Objectives:
1) clean sweep
2) make at least 100K points to add to SCCC total.
Result: done, and done!
Got the sweep about 9 a.m. local time on Sunday morning. I went to bed Sat.
night needing VO1, VE2, and WPA (!) Got back on the air Sun. morning after
breakfast. Started calling CQ on 15. Worked 2 guys, and then - whoa, VO1XX
called me! OK, that's nice. QRZ? Next call: VE2AWR. Could the script be
more perfect. It then took almost an hour to get WPA scratched off the list:
thanks to N3SD calling me. I found one more WPA station later - that was it.
Not the normal "rare" section, is it? I was worried about the ONN, ONS, ONE,
and GTA split of VE3, but I had all of them in the log within the first 2
hours.
Had some nice runs on 20 and 40 - not so much on 10 or 15. Sunday morning /
early afternoon was really a slow slog to get to the 100K points level. At
that point, I was 'done'.
But overall - great fun. Worked VY1EI early on (and VY1JA called me later on
40). I think the only section that didn't eventually call me was KP4. I
worked NP4Z early on Saturday and I never heard him again.
So I'll order another 'dust collector,' a.k.a. Clean Sweep coffee mug. I've
often wondered if you really have to get a clean sweep, or if you just send in
money, is that sufficient?? ;-)
