Comments:
This was the Corona virus self isolation contest. People around the world had
no sports to watch, places to go, or work to do. Activity seemed very good.
We also had very few multi-ops. That was a small help in alleviating the
crowding on 40 and 20 meters!
Fun contest. Well, except for the QRM. And stations stacked on top of each
other on 20 meters...
I decided to enter the new "CLASSIC" overlay so only used one radio.
WPX is mostly a rate contest so didn't figure that would be much of a problem.
Took my first mental health break at 05z. Then slept some. Took a few breaks
when the rate was still good on Saturday. Finally got serious on Sunday
morning.
The low bands were great. 20 was pretty good, but only if you could get a
frequency. 15m was a tease with a few loud signals but no volume. 10 was only
open a few minutes.
Was a thrill to give out QSO #4001 at the end of the contest. I know I am going
to look back and regret not operating more on Saturday!
I dedicate this contest to contestonlinescores.com. If not for the scoreboard,
I would have quit several times.
I did record the full contest and will try to post to my web site after the log
deadline.
Thanks to everyone who joined in the fun!
