Comments:
As I knew that I was not be able to take Sunday off, and I promissed my daughter
to take her to Harry Potter 2, I decided to go for SO(A) category this time. In
the evening of Saturday, however, the dangling portion of coax around the
rotator went dead and the full power transmission made my last balun burnt.
Neither extra coax nor PL259 was immediately available so that I had to give up
good running.
Since then 40m was kept running kilowatt but others were only with 100w +
8m-long-wire. That's why I differenciated the contest number KW/100 (so many
people seemed wondered). 15m on Sunday evening, however, was fun. It was
exciting to note that 100w+long-wire can still run; approximately 150 stations
logged with some CAs and WAs. 20m was tough with only a few QSOs. 10m was out of
question.
All in all, I enjoyed it with some new's on 40m (MT, NE, WY, SD, KS). Only Idaho
to finish my 4 band WAS, plus 14 more on 80 for 5 band WAS.
Now I am just longing for RG213U and PL259 from HRO to arrive here soon.
QSL via JH7FQK as usual.
