Didn't get all my SO2R changes done in time, so further
improvement is expected in this area. Spent much of the
contest in frustration over bugs in the software I was
using, especially when I couldn't stop it from sending
the wrong message by pressing ESCape. Noticed that
several others had the same problem, barfing on my freq
with a CQ when they meant to send an exchange. Next time
I will have this problem cured (without hot switching to
the dummy load). I did save time by not making a list of
all the bugs (cuz I never sent in my list from WPX).
10 and 160 were not very productive here, though many
stations were copyable on 160 from W7, W8, W9, W0 and
even a W2 (AA2GS). None of these guys heard me, and all
the 160 contacts in my log were in W4 & W5.
I would like to meet K8DD.
This is my favorite stateside contest.
