Comments:
It was so nice to be running 100W instead of my usual 5 (no benefit to QRP when
you are running 1D). I had some great long runs and at one point saw the rate
meter above 160/hr! Also very nice to be on 40m at 811Z and be called by
VK3TDX! Conditions were decent, and I had a good time in the <6.5 hours I could
spare from work and family. The Orion and wires in the trees did a great job for
me again. Next year, though ... Look Out!
Thanks and best reception to all, and to the ARRL for keeping this great
event/contest going. FD has been a major part of my ham radio fun since 1979.
... and for once I don't have to thank everyone for listening so hard for me.
I was happy to use the great "ears" in my Orion to work many 1B and 2B
operations, and it was a gas to feel like a big gun again! I almost felt like
maybe I don't need that big tower after all ... (but I know I do -- please see

woe) Best RX & 73 to all de kt8k - Tim
