Comments:
Had some issues starting out. 5 minutes into the contest, had a keyer/paddle
issue. Fortunately, I was able to repair the issue in about 5 minutes.
Then, at 2345 UTC, had a line of thunderstorms come through the area - so off
the air for a bit. Good time for dinner.
Finally, after the storms moved through, I was able to line things out for the
rest of the contest. There was lots of noise on 80-M on Saturday night, so much
so that listening was almost painful.
Sunday was much better, with lots of signals on 20-M. Had a small opening on 15
meters Sunday afternoon.
Mostly search and pounce with a couple of short runs.
This continues to me one of my favorite contests of the year...
Thanks to everyone who participated.
30 watts, wires and tribander.
