Comments:
FDD/HDD Controller Card went south (to visit Mr. Murphy) 2 minutes
before
contest started. Spent next 45 minutes connecting another computer and
installing NA software, so missed most of 10 meter activity (if you want
to
call it that). I entered contest to test new antenna system and spent
more time
turning antennas and testing different heights for domestic contest
purposes
than trying to get good runs going. Managed a couple of good runs when I
tried Conditions really did suck on the high bands. Also discovered that
I really
need to set up a 2 radio system if I want to do this contest seriously!
All and
all I discovered that the new antennas work really great and I had a lot
of fun
even though the conditions could have been better.
