Comments:
K3CCR is the club station at the Collington continuing-care
retirement community at FM 18OW in MD, just east of DC. Ben
N3UM and Mike W5MPB did Multi-Op HP in the 2021 SSB Sweeps.
Mike has done casual LP SSB SS. Our 3 goals; give Mike practice
with HP in a more serious SS effort, claim a score >100K, and get
a sweep. We did all 3, and had fun.
At start, 20 M was great. N3UM ran 21-00Z for 166 Qs and 36 sects;
all CA, all W7 except EWA and ID, and rare (1 or 2 Qs) AK & NT.
Then on 40 M, sigs were loud but few; ID & 3 more sects in 9 Qs
0003-0116Z, then rate died.
On 80 M, many loud signals. N3UM ran at 74/hr for 83 Qs and 31
sects including rare MAR, WV, & ONN 0024-0131Z, then quit to
return in early daytime.
W5MPB did the late shift 0153-0717Z and got 95 Qs & 9 sects on 80
M, including rare PE, DE, and MB. At QRT we had 353 Qs & 76 sects.
N3UM ran for 84 of 100 Qs & AR on 40 M 1214-1401Z, then got 42
20-M Qs + PR & rare NL, SFL, & EWA 1412-1550Z.
We did ~2.5 hr shifts 16-02Z to get to 24 hrs on. W5MPB 1630-1830Z
got SK and PAC on 20 M and VI on 15 M for the sweep!
Together we then scraped up 37 Qs on 20, 31 Qs on 40, and 6 Qs on
15 M to get to 594 Qs by 0004Z. N3UM then ran on 80 M for 88 of 101
Qs 0021-0156Z, a pleasant surprise at the end.
