Comments:
Lots of fun! Decent rates, good DX, even some new ones for me. I had only
planned for about 4 hours operating in this one, as it turned out I got almost
half of the time period. Actually focused and worked on my SO2R skills more
than in most contests. Even did separate modes on each radio-that was a
challenge! A successful event!
Unfortunately, I've shot myself in the foot. OUCH!!!!!
First, I didn't read the rules closely enough, and operated SOAB HP Mixed
Assisted. That forces me to be reclassified as a M/S. Not catching that item
in the rules causes the second goof.
Second, I did not adhere to the M/S band change time limit, rather I switched
bands at leisure.
So, my mistake causes me to submit my log as a check log. This lesson won't
soon be forgotten!
