Comments:
I was looking forward to this contest. Conditions are improving as the sunspot
numbers rise. And it was a good chance to evaluate the results of 6 months of
antenna work (new 2/2 stack on 40m). Very happy with the results - the antenna
seems to work better than my old 2-el.
The contest started well. After a nap in the wee hours, woke up to bands that
seemed broken. 15m was really a struggle to work anything. Almost quit, but
took a break and decided to get back in the game.
Conditions improved dramatically through Sat afternoon. Sunday was very good
with even a 30 minute opening on 10m to southern Europe. Nice to work so many
loud JA on 20 and 15m.
Spent (wasted) a lot of time calling HS5NMF on 20. Couldn't get through the
Europeans.
I had intended to sleep from 02-04z on Sunday, but when the alarm went off, I
decided sleep was more fun than grinding QSOs. I woke up late, worked an hour,
then went back to bed. So I felt great on Sunday but gave up some low band
points and mults.
Enjoyed watching the scoreboard race between AA3B and K1LZ. I could keep up
with them for QSOs, but they just kept getting farther and farther ahead for
multipliers. Shows the value of having access to spots.
I was CQing as much as possible. Often on 2 bands when there were two open.
That really helped the rate although I never had any giant hours. It is kind of
like playing a video game with the occasional mangled callsign to figure out.
Biggest surprise was working a KL7 on 80m. Followed by having VJ5W call in.
Only state that I missed was MT. Never heard one.
I continue to be impressed by how RTTY operating is becoming more and more
efficient. Except for those loud guys that insist on sending their call 6 times
(all of them printing perfectly...).
Thanks for the QSOs. Look forward to seeing everyone in WW SSB next month.
