Comments:

First contest I have participated in for many, many years that I actually tried
to be competitive. Still had some domestic obligations that cut into operating
time but still feel that it was more than a casual effort.

The station plays pretty well. 8877 on both bands still run well after 30
years. Still learning to use 7/7 stack on 6 that went up fall of 2014. On 2,
the 4 bay array of 13 el modified Jr. Boomers that are my original 2M antenna
from the early 80's (as WA1TFH)still play well. I was reminded how the array is
a bit too sharp though for contesting.

Power line noise is a big detriment to operation from my QTH however. Something
I need to try and address to be competitive. I know I missed many stations that
called that were lost in the noise.

In the end though I had a blast and will look forward to next year. Thanks for
all the contacts.

73, John, K1OR
