SCCC Team #2


I never expected to do this well ! In fact, late Friday night, I had come 
down with a horrible cold and sore throat!
I asked Doug to move me from Team 2 to Team 1, I didn't know how bad I was 
going to feel Saturday morning at
contest start time.....

I Knew my voice wouldn't last so I relied heavily on the DVK, which logged 
well over 2000 CQs !
By the beginning of my last 1 hour  break around 5:40 PM, my voice was 
pretty well history !

Somehow I managed the last 3 hours and was very happy with breaking 1000, 
but didn't quite make the 200
mults I had aimed for. Those last 17 Secs would have easily come had 10 not 
remained a VHF band !

I can see that I am doing much better on 20 mtrs since I gained another 
element ( now 4 ) with the MonstIR SteppIr
Yagi that went up a couple months ago and replaced the aging Telrex Monarch.

This time I think I nailed all the breaks at the best time forty 40 seemed 
to go long on skip fast and
I may have spent a bit too long on 20, but was still happy with the 20 and 
40 mult count.
