Comments:
An interesting FD...
The original plan for FD2022 was to meet KM4WHL in Washington DC and do a
combined CW/SSB 1A effort in Rock Creek Park. Almost severing my right thumb
put the kibosh on that plan so I fell back to a 1D from home in NC.
At this point using a keyboard is still painful so I realized I had to limit my
time at the rig. I decided to limit my time to 100 Qs per band max. with long
rest periods.
Midway through the effort I heard a loud POP and the K3 went dark. It turned
out the KI0BK PWRgate had died. I rewired to a APP distribution block and was
back on the air. Murphey was strong with me this year!
>From my QTH in central NC 80, 40 and 20 meters were all hopping, I was glad to
see so much activity! Also, 15 and 10 were wide open on Sunday AM, but
especially on 10 not many people were testing the water...
I worked several people on 5 bands, and Nate, N4YDU on 6 bands!
Thank you to all who were patient with me, I was slow on the keyboard.
Cheers & 73,
