Comments:
Thanks to Sam for having me up to do this. Had been fighting a cough for about 3
weeks, so, making more than one or two exchanges without coughing was a fight.
Antennas worked nicely, being able to point the mono bander at my target area,
and spraying the stack across other areas, and switching between the 2.
Awesome.
High points:
- Neat opening on 10 Saturday, picked off a bunch of mults, and Q's. Had the
stack pointed due south.
- Nice over the pole opening on both evenings on 20.
- 6 hrs of sleep on Saturday!
- 15 meters..WOW. Nice to have room, band was super quiet.
Low points:
-EVERYONE trying to pack into 7.125-200.
-20 being PACKED.
-Coughing thru the contest!!
Thanks for the Q's!
