Score includes bonus points for working NI4BK on the Battleship North Carolina
plus Dare County. Never found CHE to where I could work it.
The mobiles were out and running. Good length of contest. 20M died in the
evening and 40m was good for last hour or two...before all the mobiles
disappeared to 80m which is not great from TX.
Unfortunately N4CW/m stayed on 40M which is 'out of range' most of day from
station TX. Otherwise it was good with about 80% of the counties on the air
- either SSB or CW and 20 or 40m. No way to work mobiles on 40M SSB from TX.
Got a bunch of new ones, missed a few - just couldn't hear the mobiles. I
could use a beam. The R5 vertical just doesn't hack it all the time - hi hi
I'm not sure why NC would try their own spotting site when ch.w6rk.com does an
excellent job of getting spots out. checked it but only saw a few spots on 40M
SSB.....and no hope for those. Maybe with a 100 foot tower and a 3 el 40M at
800-1000 miles in the day time.
Thanks to all the mobiles who were out.
Rig: Yaseu FT-1000 at 150w and R5 vertical on 20M and inverted vee up 28 feet
in the middle on 40M.
