Comments:
Friday night started off much better than I thought it would. My QSO run rates
were excellent and multipliers were going quite well. Late Friday night I was
able to work PJ2T, C6AQQ and HI3A. When I quite Saturday morning I had 416 Q's
and had expectations of making 800 total Q's when the contest was over. Last
year I had approximately 348 total Q's for the contest so it was looking up for
800 Q's this year. I tried getting a run going Saturday evening around 1630
local but nothing of real value happened. So, Saturday night/Sunday morning was
a mixed bag of S&P and running. Friday night/Saturday morning run rates were on
average 60+ while Saturday night/Sunday morning were averagering 30+. For
whatever reason my noise level was much higher Saturday night which didn't
help. Thanks to Mike/WG0G my amp was back in service which definitely helped. I
missed NNY (unbelievable), PR, PAC, AK, NL, MB and NT for a total of 73 sections
and 3 DX. It's amazing what you can do with a little wire (Inverted-L) strung
through the trees on 160M.
