*_ARRL 160m Contest (CW)_*
Call:*K4WDR*
Operator(s):K4WDR <http://www.3830scores.com/findcall.php?call=K4WDR>
Station: K4WDR
Class:*Single Op HP*
QTH: GA
Operating Time (hrs): 10
Location: USA
Summary:
Total: QSOs *116* Sections *51* Countries *0* Total Score *12,291*
Club: South East Contest Club
Did not do very well but CW is not really my thing. I stumble through 15
wpm and have to listen to stations @ 25+ wpm about 10 times before I am
able to get their call correct prior to responding. However I like 160m
very much and find it to be a challenge to continue to improve on my
antennas for transmit and receive and hopefully one day I can get that
DXCC Phone on 160m that is a goal of mine.
Thanks to all those that offered advice and technical info on trying to
interface N1MM+ Logger with CWKeyCmd ... I did not get it to work like I
wanted so I had to rely mainly on my ear since the filters in SSB (DATA)
do not have the selectivity that the filters in CW mode do.
`73,
Bill - K4WDR
