Well an interesting contest as usual. I had my share of problems as my 40m
antenna (4SQ) decided to start tripping the amplifier when beamed to ZL.
I had previously taken down a 2el 40 and planned to put it back up again
but
time and the Wx got the better of that.
I did notice a fair amount of aurora around Chris GM3WOJ was sounding
auroral on 40m and the auroral activity index was at times 6 during the
night
and ended the contest at 9 (it doesn't go any higher). That's all the
excuses so:
306/188 Total 5285
80-71/43
40-76/51
20-108/52
15-49/39
10-3/3
With 2 hours off air in one stretch.
My guess is that I am at least 20 bonuses short of what I should have had,
falling short on 40 and 20. I did manage 9 x 20m LP Q's to ZL and VK.
