Comments:
Only on from 8:30 pm to 10 pm, at which point activity died down.
(Late start was due to other commitments.)
Got some feedback (both during and post) that we were alligatoring -- indeed,
we tried listening west for quite a while but did not hear any FN32 stations,
not on sideband and not on CW. Apparently several heard us (sideband). This is
one of the downsides of having gained more power, I guess. We need to take a
hard look at our receive, though I don't think we're optimistic that there are
easy solutions. (We, on a tall building in Cambridge, are super-proximate to
heavy noise from Boston.)
If you heard us and we didn't come back, would you drop us a line?
Grid distribution was:
9 FN42
6 FN31
4 FN30
3 FN43
2 FN41, FN20
1 FN22, FN10, FM29
Best DX was FM29 (WB2RVX in NJ).
