IC756PROIII, AL-1200, LOW DIPOLES
Conditions were much better this year than in the past few years. Although
there were thunderstorms around me during most of the contest causing severe
static crashes on all bands especially 40 and 80. My rate suffered from having
so many repeats. Thanks to everyone who hung in there till we got it right and
sorry to those I just could not pull out.
I also sounded like a lid at times as this was my first time using N1MM logger
and I only had about two days to learn the basics of this program. The last of
my DOS computers died about two weeks ago and I had to finally say goodbye to
old reliable CT. I was able to build a win keyer, get a cheap used Dell for
the shack, hook it all up and get the software configured by the Thursday
before the contest.
Overall it was a most enjoyable 24 hours with some great runs. I look foward
to this contest every year as it is the only time that a station from Long
Island, NY with low dipoles can generate pileups that make it feel like your on
a DXpedition to some rare entity.
Thanks to all that called and to the RSGB for sponsoring this fun contest.
See you next year.
73, Mike
