Final Score = 24822 points.
Total time: approx 12.75 hours of 36
Best time: Breaking the VY1JA pileup on 15m (NOT during
the time J was talking about in his email!) on the first
shot!
2nd best time: Running on 40m with 10-15 QRP stations
in an hour on Saturday night and a couple of 'em making
noises like I was doing THEM a favor by hanging in there!
Worst event: Finding out that I really hadn't cured the
RF problem getting back into the CW keyer line on the
computer. On the other hand, I didn't notice much
computer-generated noise on the rig this time, so at
least some of what I did seems to have worked. Argh!
It was fun (mostly)! See ya again in a couple of weeks.
