Comments:
Where did the last two days go?
This year I collaborated with Mark, K1RX and Tom, N9NC to run a mini-M2 at this
QTH, the first multi attempt from here. We divided my SO2R station into two
operating positions and ran the contest with only two radios. If we decide to
continue exploring M2 efforts from here we'll need to get serious about adding
at least one mult station, dedicated south antennas for 20 and 40 and some more
ops. Our ultimate goal was to shake things out and have a boat load of fun. We
had to swap out an amp due to a relay failure and experienced a 3 hour down time
on the 10/20/80 station due to a temporary PC failure but all-in-all things held
up nicely. It felt like a single op effort throughout the contest considering
Mark and I each put in over 30 hours. Tom operated about 12 hours each day
which allowed Mark and I to coordinate our naps in order to keep both stations
on the air with fresh ops.
Too bad 10 was dead.....a lot of aluminum went dormant this weekend.
Many thanks to all of the DX that moved from band to band upon request!
Running M2 with two great friends and a new station was a fantastic
experience.....perhaps this will be a new trend from here...?
73,
