Comments:
FT-950/500 Watts/Windom @ 45 feet - Well this was an interesting contest and
identified a few problems that I have in the station. I need to look at my
15
meter antenna situation a little better and my 20m as well. I tried the MA5B
Mini Beam and lets just say that I have got to get my hands on something
bigger
it was giving me a headache with the RFI coming back into the shack. My
keyboard
was the biggest receiver of the problems. I never have this problem with any
other mode than RTTY. Also I think I am going to have a look at doing my
RTTY
from the FSK mode next time - the filters on the radio are amazing for
"Purist
RTTY" but since I have to use the PKT/USB option they are horrible (AFSK).
But
for what its worth I did purely CQ not S&P with the exception of a few times
for this one since I wanted to see how well things worked.
Got a list of things to fix I guess now. :) And a second thought is I wonder
how much the storms off of NC affected the propagation to EU.
