Soapbox Comments
________________
My second year in this one... First time as single op. Interesting
increase in CW content as compared to CQP'98 due to the lack of
10 Meter participation/conditions. Was out to break the TN record
set by K4LTA -- exceeded by a long shot. Excellent mobile activity
again this year... with exception of whoever was covering CRN!
Only 1 jammer on 40 Meter SSB, once again dealt with
tactfully and successfully - he left after 10 mins while
rate still good (on the 2nd radio!). Very interesting
spread of activity on 75 meters all the way up to 3999.
This is the first time I have ventured above 3900, and
the animals were behaving! Love them K3YTL bonus points.
Wow again!
