Comments:

ANOTHER  CQWW   COME AND GONE…. FUN AS USUAL CONDITIONS WERE NOT GREAT
ESPECIALLY LOW BANDS FROM HERE ……  OR I GUESS MORE APPROPRIATELY MY RATHER
SMALL LOWBAND ANTENNAS  JUST DON’T  CUT IT WHEN CONDITIONS ARE MARGINAL 
…… AFTER A BIT OF  FUTILE AND NON PRODUCTIVE CQ’IN  ON 80 ………  I
FIGURED I MIGHT AS WELL  HEAD FOR THE SACK…….. BOTH 40/80/160 SEEMED TO
HAVE RECOVERED VERY WELL BY SUNDAY MORNING AND 10 METERS   PROVIDED A NICE
SURPRIZE WITH OPENINGS TO EUROPE ,  THE CARIBEAN  AND SOUTH AMERICA…… AND 
YIELDED 48 COUNTRIES AND 14 ZONES ….MEBBE  THE PUNDITS WHO  HAVE VOCALIZED
SOME SERIOUS RESERVATIONS ABOUT THE BEGINNING  OF  A NEW  CYCLE ARE ALL WET  ..
LET’S HOPE SO……….
N1MM  SEZ  I OPERATED 24  … SEEMED LONGER … HOWEVER I  DID A  LOT  OF
 S & P SO IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN MORE LIKE 26 OR 27 …… ….TRIED MY HAND AGAIN
AT SO2R …. STILL  IN LEARNING STAGES. SO OPERATOR INEPTITIDE SURELY DECREASED
THE SCORE ……. SUCH AS IT WAS …… …  AS ALWAYS A FUN CONTEST  AND THE
DROVES OF NEWLY MINTED HF’ERS FROM EUROPE SURELY HELPED MAKE THE RUNS 
BETTER……. HAD A FEW HOURS OF  RUNS  CLOSE TO 300 PER HOUR  …….. A
COUPLE OF 8 PER MINUTE OR 480 PER HR ……… 10 MINUTES OF 6.5 OR 350 PER HR
…. NICE TO BE RUNNING WHEN CONDITIONS ARE LIKE THAT HI !!
 SPENT MOST OF THE WEEK PRIOR TO CONTEST  WORKING ON ANTENNAS…………  SAME
… STUFF HERE  HI !  LEAVE IT UNTIL  FEW DAYS BEFORE  THE CONTEST …..   
……IN ANY EVENT CQWW IS INVARIABLY WELL ATTENDED AND AS  ALWAYS  A FUN
CONTEST ..
HOPE TO CATCH Y’ALL NEXT ONE   …………..GLWCDR
