Comments:
Entertaining weekend. Mostly because I operated the good parts and walked away
when it stopped being fun. Of course, watching the scoreboard always seemed to
pull me back in for more operating time to chase the next guy on the list!
Low bands were great the first night. Very quiet. Must have been quiet in
Europe as well since I called many weak stations on 160 and they came right
back.
No meters like 20 meters on Sat morning. That's what happens when 15 doesn't
open so everyone is on the same band. Had 14006 for a long time. A few short
runs (I hesitate to call them that) on 15m.
Went to 40m at 1940z and was suprised to find I could get answers from very weak
Eu.
Excellent opening to Japan on 20m just before sunset.
Coolest QSO was ZL3X on 10m. Weak and just in for a few minutes.
The bands seemed broken on Sunday morning. Just not as open as Sat. Good run
on 40m, but after 2200z I couldn't do anything. Calling guys on 80 and 160 got
beat out by every W3 or W4 that was calling. Can't tell if it was conditions or
my antennas need work.
It is nice to do a DX contest where everyone is looking for us. Especially on
the low bands.
Really enjoy operating assisted to help with the multipliers!
