Comments:
After experiencing tremendous power line noise in the first few counties it was
nice to enter the Natchez Trace Parkway. There are NO power lines along the
parkway. The parkway does have two drawbacks though - 1. the speed limit is 50
MPH (but there are no little towns to slow you down) and 2. there are no county
line signs. Since I use CQ/X for logging it magically knows what county I'm in
so no signs are no problem. The parkway was a pleasant drive.
The MSQP was a small detour on our trip to SC. My son recently moved to
Charleston. I half jokingly told my wife (driver) we can operate the MSQP,
drive to SC, and then operate the GAQP on the way back home. She took me up on
the offer so here we are!
The following counties were activated with indicated number of QSOs: Lee(75),
Chickasaw(58), Prentiss(52), Pontotoc(43), Madison(40), Attala(37),
Washington(36), Clay(34), Choctaw(32), Warren(28), Webster(28), Hinds(27),
Itawamba(25), Leake(24), Sharkey(22), and Issaquena(9).
Thanks to the following stations for contributing more than half the QSO's:
W4II(19), HA8IB(18), DL5ME(17), OM2VL(17), OH6NIO(15), DL3GA(14), LY5A(14),
WA2VYA(14), NU0Q(13), WA6KHK(13), SP5SA(11), DL6KVA(11), W4SIG(10), DL4CW(10),
SM6VR(10), DK3BN(10), G3XVR(10), DL5MU(9), WQ5L(9), K4BYN(9), WA4GQG(9),
N1API(8), K8MFO(8), and N1NN(7).
Activity seemed slow most of the day. The initial ten minute hourly rate was
the highest in my last few counties: Prentiss(174), Lee(168), and
Itawamba(150).
Thanks to everyone who called and a big thanks to my wife, K5AKS, for driving.
73, Alan N5NA
P.S. Look for me in the GAQP!
