Comments:

This was an interesting contest for me. It seems that on NAQP weekends, stormy
weather is always in the forecast. A line of severe storms was predicted to move
through my area between 18Z-0Z. I planned to burn some of my break times when
the storms got close, but that wasn’t until 2045Z. The storms hit intensely
and damaged/rearranged 4 of my 6 antennas. Then the power went out…for 3.5
hours. I was able to repair most of the antennas during the power outage. Once
the power came on, I tried to recover lost ground. 15m was disappointing. The
low bands were in excellent shape though. 

Thanks to Bob WA1FCN for coordinating the ACG teams. Thanks for the QSOs! 

73,
