Comments:
With travels to Thailand, ARRL 10 and 160 have been nil for me the last few
years and SS only a little better. I decided to play around in this one and
somewhere got enthused about trying for a sweep.
Short paths of 50-500 miles on 40 and 80 the first night were VERY bad. Much
more normal Sunday evening. I only called CQ once, trying to snag an OK
S&Per (didn't work). Went to bed 11PM with 73 mults. Got VO1BQ on 75 at
0100 tonight for #82, still couldn't hear any of the spotted WY. At 0140 I
heard KF7EB S&Ping and moved him "down 2" successfully to finish
the sweep.
It was good to get a refresher on just why this contest is so much fun
regardless of what tack or strategy you employ.
