Comments:

Sprints are always tough from AK because the clock works against us. The only usable band is 20M. By the time 40M shows some life it is near the end of the contest. I only tried 80M in the last few minutes because I've never tried it before and I must run somewhat reduced power to save the balun on my vertical.
Didn't hear much at all, but managed to work W0YK and N6RO.  Glad they have
much better 80M antennas than me!

73,
Gary AL9A
