Comments:
Whew, that was harder than I expected. We are at the bottom of the cycle, but
the the Phone contest was so much fun that I expected even better conditions
for CW! Great competition for SOAB HP USA this year. Definitely provided the
motivation to keep pushing through the poor conditions.
The bands were either open with lots of activity or totally dead. At one point
I tuned across 20m and found stations all the way up to 14140! And who would
have expected 40m to be a daylight band?! The 10m openings we short and
spotty. Definitely a good weekend for doing SO2R in order to run and chase
mults.
Worked two JAs all weekend. First one was on 80m. Second was on 20m on Sunday
afternoon. Nice to see so many African stations and multipliers.
Wish people would send their calls. I understand the tactical use of not
sending the call to run faster, but I would hear guys who had no one calling
send TU then wait. I spent a lot of time waiting for people to ID. Not all of
us are using packet (and the guys who are should want to hear your call too!).
Most annoying to have the guy finally send his call and it gets wiped out by
someone calling.
Thanks to everyone who participated in making this the best contest of the
year!

Only out of the chair for 3 times. Slept both nights so I would be ready for
the high rates during the day.
