Comments:
Started out with a limited SO2R arrangement, which quickly became close to
useless when the hard drive on the second xcvr computer decided to crap out and
operate sporadically and erratically, and eventually stopped allowing me to
enter QSOs.
Second year in a row in which I lost power in the third hour of the contest
resulting in 30 minutes forced off time.
The strategy for breaks I had planned to use quickly fell by the wayside when
conditions on 40 dictated more time on that band. 40 was nothing short of
amazing, with guys from the east coast calling in a 9:30 EST. KP2 was last to
call in for a sweep around daybreak.
I had several 150 hours but there were no really outstanding hours...just lots
of 100+ hours.
In checking the early posts, it seems like there were lots of 2000+ scores. It
should be interesting to see if all the top ten is 2100+.
