Comments:
This was my last contest operation from Hawaii before moving back to the
mainland USA next week. 5W - Elecraft KX3, Buddipole vertically-oriented
dipole, battery-powered portable from Ala Moana Beach Park in Honolulu. Worked
from 00z to 0430z. Rain and deteriorating band conditions on 20/15 led me to
call it a night at local sunset.
20 was quite good at the start - had a short CQ run of mostly mainland stations
at 00z. Moved to 15 between 0030 and 0145, and returned to 20 for 0145-0230.
Made a few more 15 meter contacts from 0230-0315, and the caught a brief
opening on 10 that gave me E51RAT and WH7M. I finished on 20, but signals were
steadily weakening and VK/ZL were even hard for me to work.
I did better this year than last year, so I'm content with that. Looking
forward to working this contest next year from California.
73, Bob KH6BE (AA6OC as of 10/21)
