Comments:
A personal best this time around. I knew I would miss Saturday so really worked
at it Fri night with about 75% worked.. First Eu QSO on Saturday at 1930 but
missed period 2100-0230. Missed NL section ...if there was anyone else on,
didn't hear them.
QRN was intense Sat requiring many repeats. The unterminated BOG (resonant at
1900Khz) worked very well along with the K3 Noise reduction (NR F1-2). I tried
using the K3 APF but have never found it to be very effective, too much fiddling
with the width and tuning. The brain space "auditory bandpass filter"
is much better!
15 dupes called in. 8 of them after 0630 Sunday. Surprising!
Thanks to all who called me. I was delighted to be on to make NL available!
