Comments:
We got this rainy Wednesday off to a fitting start with a disastrous CWT
session. Mr. Murphy showed up with enthusiasm Some sort of software screw-up
caused a massive upset at the beginning. I ended up having to close and restart
some of the software that supports rig control. This also had the effect of
turning off most of the useful windows in N1MM+ Logger. By the time I got this
mostly straightened out I had lost several minutes of op time and had to spend
the next few minutes trying to operate while simultaneously restoring the logger
configuration. I started on 80 meters and was able to get a bit of a run going,
but the rate was really poor. It quickly became obvious that I needed to go to
40. 40 was packed, and there wasn't a hole to be found anywhere to try starting
a run. S&P on 40 was also troublesome; for some reason I couldn't seem to
get through the piles as well as usual. I finally found a run frequency and
spent the last 12 minutes running at a pretty decent rate, but it wasn't close
to enough to pull out a decent score. Hope things go better for the 1900Z
session. See everyone there.
