Comments: Great Fun!! Two weekends in a row with no visit from Murphy
and back to back, CW and SSB, new personal all-time NAQP best score. I
had many times during the contest where I wanted and needed the "second
radio". I had slow CQ rates but not slow enough to warrant H & P. I
could see where a second radio to H & P would help with the QSO rate and
MULT total. Perhaps, some day, that need will become a reality.
Best Hour: Hour #1 - 97 Q's (I am in awe of the op's like K6LL & AD6DO
that AVERAGE 100+ per hour!!)
Highlight: Beating my previous best NAQP SSB score by over 20K points.
Disappointment: Very poor early evening 75M conditions and 40M going long
too early.
73, Jerry, AB5SE
