Hello all: As I told Scott before the contest, I was taking my XYL to
an Itzak Perlman concert on Saturday night as her Valentine's Day
present ($75.00 a ticket!). I didn't know if I would get home before
the Sprint was over, but told him he could put me on the last team if he
needed someone to fill it out.
I did get home and was QRV for 57 minutes, 6 on 40 and 51 on 80.
80 77
40 10
Total 87 x 33 = 2,871. 40 and 80 sounded OK. There was almost no QRN.
However, signals on 80 seemed weaker than usual, especially those from
the North East. Was surprised to work WJ9B (FL) and W3YY (VA) on 40 in
spite of long skip otherwise. No DX worked this time and only one
Canadian, VA3NR. I heard a station giving BC as a multiplier, but it
wasn't his frequency and I didn't get his call. Nice to work many SSC
team members on 80. I got all the fourth area states except KY.
73,
John, K4BAI.
