Comments:
Tried going to 20 CW/Phone twice but heard nothing. Seemed very slow for first
2.5 hours or so then started to pick up. Decided to try running a frequency and
that helped rate quite a bit. Did more of that rather than S & P but still
have fat fingers when typing so that has to improve to avoid breaking rhythm.
Added 33% more radials to my HF-2V 80/40 antenna a month ago and seems to have
helped with performance. Also had no lockups on the U-verse cable modem this
time around too.
On a side note, after 47 years of chasing DX (off and on), I completed 5 Band
DXCC with WARC band endorsements two weeks ago, working Rwanda and Guantanamo
Bay on 80 meter FT8 for # 100 and # 101 respectively!
