Comments:
We surprisingly managed to beat last August's score. Even
radio blackouts from solar flares can't stop us!
Jake K6MP was our awesome 12-hour operator. All day long on
20m, and then last two hours on 80m.
Rebar N6DB logged the initial 10m QSOs and then kept a watch
for Mults on 10m, 15m, 20m. He'd run when the other ops needed
a break, but his Mult-hunting is how we managed to beat last
August's score. He was there the whole 12 hours except for an
hour on the telephone fixing a work problem that hurt our 40m
run.
Mork K6UFO got the setup going, and operated the first 7 hours.
Clayton NF1R came in with some vital energy during the mid-
afternoon slump. Dave AA6XV worked a QSO for the NCCC, so we
totalled five operators and 100% NCCC!
10m was only CA, KP2 and KH6. 15m and 20m were okay, except
during the blackout from the Class M Flare. 40m and 80m got
better later, later. And we never made it 160m as 40m was so
good.
N1MM worked fine, we have some intermittent and hum-prone
audio connections, and maybe a loose coax connector - but
nothing as bad as an M Class flare!
See you in California QSO Party October 5th!
