Comments:
What a blast! MIT Radio Society's Andy, K2TJ and Harvard Wireless Club's
Clayton, NF1R operated from the awesome multi-multi station of Dave, K1TTT.
Our goal for this contest was to make 1,200 QSOs and have an outside shot of a
top 3 position. We did not reach our QSO total goal, but we're very happy with
the score.
Observations:
-We wish more single ops had called out on 10 meters more frequently. The band
was open, especially around 2200-2400.
-15 meters sounded like it might have some life early on in the contest, but
never opened in a great way. After around 2 hours, we moved from the band, and
the 10-minute rule discouraged a return for the rest of the contest.
-Some signals were very loud on 160, but so were the static crashes. The
conditions seemed to get worse there near the end of the contest.
-Our rate dropped somewhat during the dinner hours with few takers for CQs, but
picked up substantially around 0200Z.
Thanks to the stations we worked on 5 bands, and to K9OM whom we worked on six.
Also, thanks to Dave for making his station available for the contest.
73,
Clayton NF1R
