My second try at the WW. I had a good time this year. Still too
much S&P, I gotta try to run 'em more in this one. CQ's often produced
nothing, but I that's partly how I'm gonna get the QSO total up. Very
bad QRN on Saturday night rendered the low bands useless, even with a
Beverage. Almost all 160-80-40 QSO's were made on the first night. You
could tell when packet hit the rare ones. Instant bedlam. Also need to
learn to manage sleep (or lack thereof) better. Nice being called by 9X4WW
and so many other great ops. The amazing thing about the WW is that you
never know who you might work next. You can still work a double mult like
a JW in the last 1/2 hour, for instance. And you might break a million on
the next QSO! What a contest!
Thanks for all the Q's worldwide. This really is an amazing contest.
