[3830] N4ZR ARRL DX CW

[Pete Smith N4ZR]

When I came downstairs about 5:45 yesterday evening, my wife said, "For 
a guy who wasn't going to enter the contest, I sure didn't see much of 
you this weekend."

What can I say - conditions were out of this world on the high bands, 
and pretty good on 40 also.  It was one of those weekends when signals 
were so strong that you often didn't have to turn the antennas.

Time: 14:59. Pretty close to 100 Qs/hour, about 2/3 S&P.  Lots of 
Europeans S9+40-55dB. Makes me wonder what I could have done if I had 
put in 30-35 hours.  I used PC5M's Athena for goal setting and tracking 
- it's a great incentive!
