Comments:
This was a initially a very action-packed weekend and I knew even a "Sunday
only" 12 hour operation was not happening. First I had a great visit with
my 29 year old Son Alex - first time I have seen him in over a year!! Second,
my step-daughter Frazier got her own apartment and needed some assistance moving
- my Sunday morning activity. I arrived at WX3B at about 1:00pm and got started
shortly there after. The non-stop pileup I had hoped for never materialized.
Several hours into the event I was notified my friend Bill K3WI became a silent
key. It is fitting Bill passed away during Sweepstakes, a contest we often did
together at my house as a parallel operation. I took several hours off and
thought about all the great times Bill and I had together.
I went to 80 way too early and ended back up on 40,which was truly where most of
my activity was. I was happy to be called by so many sections, and I always
forget that it's really not worth pouncing on multipliers. Each multiplier I
pounced on, even PR, eventually called me again during a run!!
BIG PVRC turnout, and there are a lot of BIG scores out there!!
My best wishes to everyone for a happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas/Happy
new year!
73,
Jim WX3B
