The audio might need some time to buffer depending on your connection speed.

I didn't do well this week. I started off on 20 meters and worked one
california station before switching down to 40. 40 meters was hot - but I was
loosing all of the jump balls. I heard both west coast and 9 land fairly well,
but I couldn't work them.

Things got better when I went to 80. I made 13 Q's on 20 and 40 in the first 15
minutes of the contest but when I got to 80 I made 25 in the last 15 minutes.
Things weren't great on 80, but it was better than 40. I notice that the "low
band season" really is coming to a close. During the winter months I would have
almost no noise on 80 and 160. Now I have S7-S9 QSB on both bands at almost all
times. 40 was even a little noisy.

Anyways, it was nice to be back. I missed the first week of ladder
competition.

CU all next week.

73,
