Comments:
I marked SO2R, but I never made an SO2R-style QSO. Just used the Kenwood on
160m.
Only managed a bit of operating time between Easter activities, resting my bad
back, and miscellaneous other things. Conditions were interesting. 10m never
opened up much, other than North-South propagation paths. 15m was open solid
into central and south america both afternoons. No EU on 10 or 15m. No JAs or
asians heard during my operating time. 20m was generally good, though.
40m was really tough, since my best 40m antenna, a 1/4 wave sloper, is out of
comission. Did manage to make one EU contact - OK1RI. It was a lot of work.
Worked NQ4I on six bands Wanted to be down there with the team, but just
couldn't make it this time. This was the best I could do.
Just before the end fo the contest I had my frequency on 15m stolen by someone
in my own contest club. I'm still trying to figure that one out.
