Comments:
I am actually quite pleased with this score. I was using N1MM for the first
time in a Sprint and I just put a microHAM MK2R in the SO2R box slot. I had to
reboot 4 times in the first hour since I thought I had locked up the computer.
Afterward, I found out I was simply hitting the "~" key below the ESC key and
putting N1MM into a TUNE mode, I think. When that happened, I thought my only
recourse was to reboot, but I found out I could have simply hit "~" again and
gotten out of TUNE. Anyway, I won't use that keyboard again. ;-)
Unfortunately, on one of my reboots, I had VA1MM on the hook, but could not
confirm with him and I never heard him again. I'm sure I miscopied a few more
than normal since it was a madhouse at the keyboard this time.
I missed some easy mults, but I will fix that when I get more than one antenna
up. Two directions is better than one in my book.
Thanks to N3BB organizing the CTDXCC teams and for a PR! He says he has QRN
that holds him back, but I think it is just all the MULTS banging on his
headphones.
Fun as usual!
