Comments:
Had to run some errands before the contest so did not sit down to operate until
1215z (15 mins late). Stayed on the air almost continuously for the remainder of
the 24 hours. Two quick breaks and one for 12 minutes to eat.
Decided to do this contest old school. SO2R, but no cluster. I have gotten
used to having lots of spots of multipliers, so it was good to remember the
tension of having to decide when to stop running and look for mults.
You never know what you will get for conditions in the Summer. Was hearing
Europe on 10 meters at the start, in the afternoon until after sunset, and again
on Sunday morning. Worked some Europeans on 15 meters at 4 am local time here!
Even with tropical storm Elsa racing away, the low bands were quiet on this end.
Must have been noisy down south and in Europe as I called a number of loud
stations on 160m that could not hear me. 40m was so good I didn't spend enough
time on 80m so missed a number of "easy" HQ mults.
All antennas seemed to be working. I think I have a problem with the stacking
box on the 10m array. Looks like it is time to do some work there. The
recently repaired 40m beam was hearing well but has an SWR problem that will
need some investigation.
Did not hear a JA station on any band until Sunday morning when 20 finally
opened that way. Had a few call in along with a BY and DU, which were welcome
mults.
Ended the contest with a nice run on 15 meters CW. I kept thinking I should go
to SSB, but the activity never seemed to be there at other times during the
weekend. Where are all the phone ops?!
Thanks to everyone that was active and making QSOs. Hope you had as much fun as
I did!
