Comments:
FT1000MP x 2 (SO2R), Alpha 78 (1 KW), AL811A (500 W), TH6DXX, zepp, dipole,
inverted vee.
Planned to enter mixed mode, but the DX Doubler, NA logging program and
laptop
computer have some problem and the computer locks up whenever you are on
Phone
and try to change rigs. So, entered CW only for the first time in years.
Had the rotator control box burn up (power transformer?) Thursday night.
Had
forgotten that I had a spare. So, beam wasn't "stuck" west for the contest
after all.
Band conditions had been very good for a few days prior to the contest, but
weren't so good for the contest. Understand I missed several mults on
10 M.
Didn't find it easy to check that band with the bandpass filters in.
Need to
get a six pack to make it easier to change bands.
Had to QRT for about 25 minutes due to a thunderstorm early Saturday
evening.
Rate held up well until about 09Z when I went 10 minutes without a QSO and
without finding a new station to call. Plenty of activity when resumed
about
11Z.
Missed the JAs. We didn't get our usual JA opening on Saturday morning.
Worked
only two, one on 40 and one on 20, both of whom answered CQs. Never
heard one
calling CQ.
Thanks for all the QSOs. A lot of fun.
73,
John, K4BAI.
