Thanks to those who worked me - was at home with out of town family so just
a few hours to operate.
CDX seemed very noisy- lots of repeats both ways.  Had to QRS quite a bit
because of the QRN and rapid QSB. Still probably had my more than fair
share of busted QSO's...
Did work a couple of JA's with my temporary 1/4wave vertical with K3/KPA500
combo.

I worked a couple dozen folks on 20m (I am entering 40m SB) just to give
out the NX4 prefix.

Hope everyone had a great time!

vy 73,
Chris, NX4N :-)
