Soap: As a low power contester,the 10 meter contest really is my favorite !
This was more fun than I have had in a contest in a long time.The rates
were good most of the time, and when things slowed down,I changed
modes.Started off with a nice JA run mixed with east coasters.Was hoping to
start the morning with a nice Euro run,but it never happened.The few I
heard never heard me.Only 12 Europe Q's total.I'm sure this will change
next year. 84 % North America. The states came pretty easy,but the country
mults just weren't there.Had a good time and look forward to next year.I
may try the 2 radio thing next time,and maybe install a tri-bander at 50
ft.Thanks for the Q's.73,de Larry K6RO
