Comments:
Got started a few minutes late since it took me longer than planned to get the
logging set up. Trying to listen to the second radio was slowing me down in
the first hour until I finally realized that the monitor volumes had been
increased to levels that don't really work well for SO2R.
Everything after that went well until the final few hours on 80 and 160. The
absorption was so high on 80 that it took multiple repeats to work the few
non-West Coast stations I was able to barely hear. Things got better in the
final hour but I still couldn't work several of the mults I could hear.
I had a 60-minute rate over 200 when I was dual-CQing on 15 and 10. Dual-cqing
is great for rate but I was missing a lot of mults and ended up mostly doing
S&P on one radio while CQing on the other.
