Couldn't get a run going on 20 until about 7:30. Wasted first 15
minutes of
contest trying to run on 20. 80 is usually my best band but it didn't
develop
for me. Was working everyone I heard but guess summer condx are just
crummy.
Interesting E opening on 10 to upper midwest. Didn't hear many on 160M.
All in all, I feel like I made a good effort. Lower score and less
QSO's
than January but more mults. Murphy visited me rather than my equipment
before test. Pinched a nerve that runs from shoulder to neck night
before
then got hiccups an hour before test. Funny thing, I know how to cure
hiccups
in about 90% of folks, but when I get em, I'm stuck with em. Luckily
they
quit just 10 minutes before the test as I was starting to weigh the
advantages
of starting later or going all s&p for a while. Lots of TCG in log and
several comments about us being everywher ;) Nice work folks, I had a
blast. Now if I can just get my decrepit frame outta this lazyboy.
73,
