Comments:
This was a fairly half-hearted effort - having missed the first seven and last
two hours to work, and a bunch in the middle to warm weather outdoor exercise
and an insistence on sleep... But in contesting, the goal is to have fun -- and
for that, this was definitely a Top 10 finish.
Propagation wasn't the best, nor was it the worst... 80 & 40 seemed much better
on Friday night; 15 was definitely better on Sunday. Things started getting
noisy as Sunday went on, I suppose to be expected given the weather out west.
There was always a (usually pleasant) surprise around the next band change.
Some of them didn't end up in the log, as I didn't feel like sitting in
pileups... but I don't think I've ever heard a UK or EY on 40 before, and 9N7JO
was definitely interesting.
It would be interesting to find out what was up with PJ2T's 10m transmitter...
"596 04" may have been generous...
