[3830] KR6NA SO/LP

[Joe Carvalho]

My first R/RUP and I enjoyed the heck out of it, thanks to all. Living in
the quaint hamlet of Pine, buried several thousand feet in a valley, gives
you lots of time to call CQ and pray propagation is at the right angle to
make it into the rf hole I call home. I did hear a few Europeans, but the
Great Wall of EastCoast was tough to break. I found the easiest way to
break the mountainous pileups was to wait until everyone else had worked
them. 

Nothing broke due to not having any moving parts on the antennas. Radio
stayed cool because it was 38F in the shack. RTTY(WF1B) ran very well, as
did RITTY(K6STI). The software was running in a DOS window under W98. There
were a few moments when the keyboard/queue would lockup, but it cleared
without a reboot.

Thanks to all who heard me.

73 from the Little Shack on The Tundra,

Joe KR6NA
