Comments:
Well was interesting. Turns out that I'm far enough away from Kansas that it's a
one-band-at-a-time contest. On Saturday, signals on 20 meters were loud right
from the start, but I couldn't work anyone on 40 until late afternoon, as 20
started to fade. On Sunday, 20 meters was quite a bit harder, but I did work a
few eastern Kansas stations on 40 CW during the day when nobody else was
calling.
My main goal for the weekend was to work as many counties as possible toward my
USA-CA award, and that part went great. Only missed Graham and Trego. I did hear
Graham on CW but couldn't get through the pileup. Didn't hear Trego at all.
I'm probably not alone, but 93% of my contacts were with 1x1 call signs... Looks
like I found all of them except N0R and W0C. I made two contacts on RTTY when
K0R was spotted. I briefly went to FT8 on Sunday and worked one station. Not
sure if that would have been worth more time, but I didn't want to miss any
counties on CW/SSB.
Thanks to all the fixed stations and to mobiles/portables who did all that
driving to make the contest fun for us out-of-state stations, and to Bob, W0BH,
and team for organizing it.
