Comments:
Thanks again to John Evans, N3HBX, for letting me use his fine station again for
Sweepstakes SSB. I did better than last year the first night - ending up with
about 90 more QSOs when I got a few hours of sleep about 4:30AM EDT.
I went to 80 meters about 30 minutes early on Saturday evening - 40 didn't seem
great but 80 was good for a few hours that evening.
Sunday was a slog. Nothing I did seemed to generate decent rates. I had 81
sections early Sunday afternoon. I pointed the 15 meter stack Northwest - 15
didn't really sound good enough to run on but I scanned the band and found
KL7SB. 82 sections.
I switched to running on 15 so I could point a 20 meter stack Northwest and
actually got a nice short burst of callers. I also found VY1AAA CQing with no
answers for the sweep! :-) As I tuned further up the band, I found VY1MB
under heavy QRM for a second NT QSO. Unassisted sweeps feel like an
accomplishment - I missed VI and NNY in CW.
My last sections were GTA, EB, SB, ND, AK, and NT. GTA? Really? :-) Only 1
QSO from PR and two from VI and NT. QSOs by section and hourly rates follow.
Thanks for the QSOs! :-)
73,
