Comments:

 

Thank you to everybody who took the time to give me contacts during the contest, especially VE3OIL/R, and several people with multiple call signs. 😊The bands did not do anything interesting so without the help of rovers, especially Russ, I would not have had nearly as many multipliers.

 

5% of my contacts were on 220 mHz, which I hope to improve for the January contest.

 

My noise on 144 mHz shows up daily at about 9 PM at this time of year, but will be much earlier in January, really eating into the available contest time on that band.
