Comments:
That was entertaining! I had forgotten how much fun DX contests can be when
multiple bands are open at the same time.
Only a casual effort so spent lots of time tuning around looking for
multipliers. Single radio effort. I was either tuning or running so fast
there was no time to listen on a second receiver.
I never expected rates like this. Personal best hours ever from USA: 232, 221,
220. Best 60 minutes was 237. Wish I had turned on the recording. :(
About 22z on Saturday, we had a very wet snow storm come through. Temperature
was right about freezing so everything stuck to the antennas. In a 30 minute
period I saw the SWR go from 1:1 to 5:1 on all bands. I could still work
stations, but it was hard. Nothing to do but wait for morning when the sun
would melt the snow. That finally happened around 14z. Antennas work much
better with no ice!
Pet peeve. "Thanks for 04. QRZ?" If you have time to say other stuff, you
have time to give your @$^%#^% callsign!
Worked on 6 bands: C37N C5A CR3L EA3CCN EB1WW EE9Z OT5A PJ2T
Worked 26 other stations on 5 bands. 160m was the weak link.
