Comments:
Another fun January contest in the books! Lots of highlights here:
- Awesome conditions on Saturday, on all three bands. Best 6m Es I've ever seen
in a January contest + good tropo on 2/432. Sunday was very ordinary. I
wouldn't call Sunday a bust, but it was nothing special.
- Lots of interesting QSOs & calls worked...AA9RK via airplane (or was it
UFOs?) scatter on 432 digi was very cool. 6F6F was a fun call to work on 6m.
K9JK/R for the 12 QSO grid corner sweep. Just to name a few.
- Found a rotor issue a few weeks before the contest and got it swapped out the
last warm day of the season. New rotator worked, but had some rough spots and
issues when pointed NW, so perhaps an upgrade is in order this Summer.
- Best ever 432 #s here. Lots more digi activity on 432 which helped get lots
more mults and distant QSOs in the log. Hope that trend continues!
- Managed to beat last year's claimed score by literally the value of a 432 QSO
or a little over 1 "normal" 6/2 QSOs. Hard to compare this year vs.
last but with 6m QSOs & Grids down, felt good to finish a little ahead of
2021.
Thanks for the fun and hope to work you in the next one!
