Conditions were good with a low noise level low only S8-9. Worked all S&P.
Only worked one JA Sat morning but could hear many others working them.
Sunday no JAs but worked a host KH6s. While my weak CW skills showed...I'm
getting better! Hoping to fatten up my 160 WAS count and that worked out.
While the Elecraft gear was solid, my old laptop blue screened it's self to
junk heap. Was planning to swap it out AFTER the contest! The new PC
requires a host of adapters/dongles and upgraded data cables which are
draped all over...hope the mice don't trip. The lash-up worked fine
and all will be rerouted and ready for WPX RTTY. Since most of my
operating is still left handed, big thanks to all who waited the extra
seconds for me to report. A note: With PC/Keyer generated CW, ops working
a "BUG" really stood out and was surprised how many I heard.
