Comments:
The contest started off well I suppose, I was at work. BOTH Friday AND Saturday
night. Being a mobile DJ you gotta work when there is work to be done. That
falls on the weekend! I sure wanted to do more than 6.5 hours in this one.
After last year this was a disappointment (724K!), that was a memory I will
never forget!
Bands were surprising! 10 was good for the time I got to spend on it, about
what you would expect, but there was some EU on there I got an LZ, OH, SM, and
SP on 10m which was awesome! Too bad its hard to work the USA on 10 from the
USA!
15m was a good band for me with limited time and a large supply of stations, I
barely got to work a third of what was there. But both radios and all the
antennas work well on 15 so I played there for a bit. Hard to find a spot as
the stations were wall to wall up to about 21.150
20m was noisy and full but I found an empty spot and sat there calling CQ for a
while. Had like 2 replies so I left.
40m was good, just not much DX on there when I was able to work it. Everybody
was gone after I got home from my DJ party, still I worked 6 zones, 18
countries and 12 states.
I am pleased with my score for what it is worth. I hope everybody else had fun
too! Thanks to all for the contacts and I hope to see everyone in the WPX RTTY
where I hope not to have to go to work! ...maybe I'll get snowed in!
73, Craig KD9MS
