Comments:
Had some intermittent swr problems with the upper SteppIR so relied solely
on
the lower SteppIR during those periods where it misbehaved. Goal was 500
Qs.
Funniest moment was when working a 1 station and I have him the report but
took
him a while to respond. He finally came back and apologized that his dog
came
in and laid on the footswitch.
Operator behavior was good for the most part in this contest. Plenty of
room
to spread out I guess. Maybe it was just the holiday spitit :)
Nice run to the west coast yesterday afternoon and equally good one to New
England today. Not sure what was up with W2AAA giving everyone 58 signal
report. I had received two or three actual reports over the weekend but
hung
around and listened for a couple of minutes and everyone got the 58.
Thanks to all the SECC and SEDX members that worked me. Remember working
NQ4I, N4GG, N4LR, W4IW, W4GKF, NN4RR, K4WI, and others.
Ran into a lot of good and patient ops in the contest and lots of fun.
Wishing
everyone a happy holiday, 73'......Fred WW4LL
