Comments:
I checked the SO2R box, but mostly used the 2nd radio for QSYing...I
forgot to turn down the sidetones before the contest - one was
especially loud -
so I couldn't hear much on the 2nd radio when the 1st was sending.
That's the worst thing about those doggone FT-990s - you have to take
the cover off to adjust the sidetone level!
I operated more than I thought I would, but got late starts both
mornings and did some piddling around...I'd guess 28 hours maybe. If
I'd thought I was going to operate that much, I'd have done more
CQing earlier...just enjoyed tuning around calling folks.
