Comments:
Was a treat and a relief to be able to start in-person contesting again, with
four fully-vaccinated people in shack (two or three at a time), one half-remote,
and three fully-remote. Ken's famous contest chili much tastier in person and
offered much-needed sustenance for some long nights in this heavily nocturnal
contest.
Most noteworthy 6-bander: JF1NHD (thanks, 10m!) Also, NA6O (our station Chief
Engineer). Oh, and our friends at ND7K (congrats to them!)
Some interesting conditions. Band-by-band. . .
160m - (N6RO/NT6V/WD6T) NT6V first evening, then N6RO manning the mighty wire
4-square and mining what was possible and a bit more. First night prop. poor, 3
JAs. Sunday AM, prop to USA better, but very bad to AS/PAC. One JA logged,
though band map full of Asians working each other. Only JA8DNV got through when
RBN in JA was 2 dB. Very disappointing, but it is summertime.
80m - (WX5S/K7GK/WD6T) Noisy conditions both nights. K7GK took first evening
with a few EUs (first one OQ5M at 0430z), amidst mostly domestic. Then WX5S did
his patented expert job with the all-night JA heavy lifting (second night as
well). WD6T filled in second evening for a bit (SO2R w/160). Wire 4-square and
Beverage
40m - (WD6T/WA6O) Mixing things up, WD6T first evening and second night, WA6O
first night and second evening. Good EU Friday, with 69 stations logged,
including some calling in. Asian opening decent. Second night bad QRN with
T-storms in the East, improved as night wore on. Nice surprise was F6AGM who
called in well after their dawn while our stack was at 70 degrees and gave us
serial number 1. Best DX was VU and XV around our sunrise. (And thanks to WX5S
for QRX while I worked them on his 2nd harmonic.)
20m - (K3EST/K6AW) Serious iron man BIC from the Dynamic Duo covering both 20m
and 10m. 20m open to somewhere nearly all day and night, with only a few hours
available to sleep before dawn. Beat last year's Q count handily with RO 3-Yagi
stack
15m - (N6WM/K7GK) Band much improved over last year. Open all Friday night
into Saturday AM with lots of good mults, including deep BY, able to work
9A/CR6/DL EU Saturday, S5 Sunday 5Z in Africa for a Sunday treat. 3-Yagi stack
10m - (K3EST/K6AW/N6RO) Mostly E-skip but nice JA opening around 2200 on Sat.
Other DX included D4Z, and of course South America, and a few Caribb. on the
3-Yagi stack

Thanks for the fun
