Comments:
For the first time in about 15 years I did not get to PA as a mobile or rover. A
combination of reasons: no readily available driver; an extended family clambake
on Saturday; upcoming road trips to NJ and Florida; my mother, who had lived in
Hermitage, having passed away since last year; a sense that there was already
pretty good county coverage; and a uniquely difficult log submission process.
But I did want to get on, and decided it was also a good opportunity to get
some time on the KX3. Conditions to PA were pretty good, other than early
Sunday when WPA was not very strong on 40. I suspect I could have done more on
160 had I not retired for the night at 0230Z. I managed six bands with NO3M,
and could have done seven if Ty was QRV on six. On six I did hear KD8MQ (pretty
weak) and N3XF (pretty strong) but neither heard me.
I was impressed by the close breakdown between CW and SSB on both 80 and 40.
All in all, interesting to see the contest from the fixed station perspective.
