Comments:
My first serious effort in IARU HF Contest. Was really surpirsed by the level
of activity for a summer contest. The recent increase in sun spots really
helped the propagation. This was the first time I entered a contest in the
Mixed category and I was glad I did. SSB QSO's were difficult and I could
never get a good run going even though many EU's were loud here in AK. The
advantage of CW over SSB was obvious and I was glad I didn't choose to run SSB
only. That would have been sooo frustrating. Maybe I should have done CW
only, but I know many SSB stations were happy to get the Zone 1 on phone. All
in all a fun event. And the timing of the date for a 24 hour contest was
excellent. My XYL and I are celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary on July
12, so it was good to get the contest in BEFORE any conflict with anniversary
plans. Thanks IARU!
