Lots of fun again, as this contest usually is. Condx were great!!
The good condx caused me to spend quite a bit more time in front
of the radio than I had planned. I had been reading about the 6M
sporadic E openings to EU so I had a feeling something could
happen on 10 - I was not disappointed! Nothing like working EU on
10 in summer at the sunspot minimum!! 20 never died - it was
usually decent and often really good. 9J2BO called in on 80!!
Missed most of the afternoon hours and a three hour stretch in the
middle of the night when the lightning started - which also
happened to coincide with one of those really good times on 20 :-( .
Thanks to all for the Qs. See you next time!
>From the frivolous dept.....
You think about stuff like this when you operate about a mile and a
half from the neighboring zone. Having worked a fair number of
zone 8 stations (same zone = one point) I re-opened my log,
changing my QTH to zone 7. The resulting score was 434,686 - a
difference of 61K!!! Kinda makes me want to suggest to Phil that
we put that big tower on a barge and float the station across the
river to MN next time!! :-)
