Comments:
This one is all about having fun. With the 160m feed point about 5 feet off
the ground, nothing available for 80m and the 40m dipole at 30 feet above
the ground at best, it was time to just have fun and pass out points. The
Friday night JA opening was really good. And, the JA's on 15m were about as
loud as I've ever heard here in southeast Georgia. Saturday was completely
different; only a handful were heard. Conditions overall seemed to be good
to very good but not as good as last year. But, I had a great time and
spent more time on the air than I anticipated.
The DX was pretty good although the number of mults on each band were down
from the previous year. Still, managed to work South Cooks, Saudi Arabia,
Kenya, Reunion (3 bands), Turkey, E Kiribati, Palau, Guam, Qatar, Egypt,
Kazakhstan and finding Guernsey on 10m was nice. Never got Alaska on 10 m so
you know the sun was in a foul mood up that way. 40m was a pleasant
surprise considering my antenna.
Anyway, a great radio weekend, my thanks to the contest committee and all
those who contacted me. Looking forward to WPX with some new antennas.
