Comments: Bands were pretty noisy - but it was a fun time.  First time I
kept BIC for
22+ hrs out of 24.  I guess old dogs can learn new tricks...but it was HARD
for this
OM.   I worked 22 of the WRTC stations - all on 20.  It sure would help if
guys would
give their calls after each Q - or at least once every 3rd Q...kind of
frustrating to
wait for some of the DX stations to give their calls.  Had some 40 mtr SSB
lid
jump in on a "run" on SSB - he was either very angry or high on
something...had
to QSY - interesting the pile-up followed me down the band and he never
showed
up again!  Surprising to make any 10 Mtr Q's - and unfortunate I didn't
make
more on 15...but overall my best effort.  Interesting that I had 1 less
mult overall
than last year but 200+ more Q's.  Station worked well:
Ftdx5K ---> Alpha 87A;
Ant -- 4 Ele SteppIR DB32 and slopers for 160 and 80.
MicroKeyer II and N1MM+.
73 until next time - Dick
