Comments:
Had fun. Nice to be able to call CQ for a change without any frequency fights.
Snow/rain static was bad for a while; my apologies if I had trouble hearing at
times. Thanks for all the QSO's. Worked G0IVZ, G3AB, G4PIQ/p, GM3POI, J88DR,
VA3RAC, VE6JY, VE7CC, VO1AU, and ZF2NT on 5 bands. Lots more on 3 or 4 bands.
Originally planned a 12 hour effort but couldn't stick to my off-times - wanted
to keep tuning for DX. (Writelog says 14 hours on-time.) Looks like 99
Band-Call Areas, including a couple new band-counters for me: 7Q7 on 10M, and
9H1 on 80M.
133 Bonus Q's.
Notes for next year: Improve LF/receiving antenna. Good contest to practice
SO2R.
73, Chris VA3NR
