Comments:
Kept waiting for 10 meters to open so I could start the contest but I finally
gave up and started on 15. Slow start but I finally got good rate which was
fun. 10 finally showed some life so I switched bands but it was back to slow
S/P again until it also peaked for a nice run.
10 didn't last very long here in Alaska but it did fill in 31 mults. 15 by then
produced excellent rate for a few hours then died. 20 sounded great but no one
can hear me and the band was "full" so I ended up wasting two hours for just 30
Q's. Finally realized this wasn't working so I took 30 mins off time hoping 20
meters would get better which it did and allowed another two hours of super
rate at 180+.
20 slowed and 40 wasn't ready so another lost chunk of time. Once we got a
little more dark soaked 40 was great and I ended up at the top band edge had
good rate. Never been that high on 40 before. I basically ran out of clock when
80 peaked and also lost 160 except for some moves.
See everyone on topband next week where hopefully I will be a lot louder then I
was tonight and at the topband dinner at Dayton.
Lucy the dog never came into the shack today, the SSB yelling must disturb her
naps I think.
