Comments:

Made very bad tactical error getting to 40 mtrs at wrong time
All I heard most of time was foreign broadcast and very few stations
from 0100Z to end of contest.

With 3 Elements at 72 ft, I don't ever remember doing this poorly on 40
Would like to hear from other members what their most productive
times were on 40 and did it differ from past NAQPs

Had a buckshot type noise across 20 most of afternoon and almost
thought my blanker had failed and locked ON....could not figure
where it was coming from...Tuned entire band looking for a big
signal that might be splattering but heard none !
Anyone else experience this noise?
