Comments: Was able to put in more time than originally expected...but not
whole effort.
Interesting condx - CQ'd on 10 mtrs for about 10 min at one point - could
only rouse
1 Q's and 1 mult then was moved to 10 by CO station and made the contact no
problem -
but still no response to CQ's....strange.  Wondered if I spent too much time
on 15 -
but it seemed to pay off even though rate got a little slow before going
down to 20.
Had a few great runs on 20 and felt for a bit that I had the amp on.  Had a
TC1xxx
call me on 20 - so it was truly interesting condx.  I had to take 1.5 hrs
off while things
were still going well on 20...when I came back 20 was slowing down - so went
to 40 but
rotatable dipole wasn't making it too well yet - to early.  So back and
forth between
20 and 40 - ended up with a small run going on 40 when I had to finally went
QRT...about
1930 never got to 80 or 160 - but comments seem to indicate I didn't miss
much.
Thanks for contacts and best wishes to Teams 1 and 2.  BTW - first Q was
with VY2TT
on 15...thanks Ken!!!
