Started late and planned to just cherry-pick a few states I needed for WAS on a
few bands. After a few minutes of that I started working my way through the
spots in the N1MM software. When that was exhausted, I decided to run for a
while. I found a clear frequency on 75m in the Extra portion of the band and
ran for about an hour, logging 71 Q's. I then decided to move up into the
General portion of the band and after a bit of searching landed at 3810 and ran
there for the balance of the contest logging 96 Qs at a rate of 74/hr.
2014-01-19 02:59Z - 04:00Z, 3658 kHz, 71 Qs, 70.0/hr KB4KBS
2014-01-19 04:32Z - 05:50Z, 3810 kHz, 96 Qs, 74.2/hr KB4KBS
Of the 14 states I needed on 40 and 80, I worked 7 of them. Now to cross my
fingers that they upload their logs to LOTW.
I worked a good number of GCG and SECC folks - call signs I recognized from the
reflectors - and got to give K4BAI a bit of a hard time in the last hour
pretending I didn't recognize his call... Sorry I didn't get on a team guys,
but I didn't think I would be able to get on at all; these 5 hours were a an
unexpected serendipity.
Thanks for all of the stations who called me, especially N7MZW, Chuck, in WY
who was so busy with a pile-up when I heard him while doing S&P that he was
"working by the numbers". He then had to wait for a LID to stop
harassing me with a DVR'ed "CQ DX" message to be able to work me when
I was doing the running. Also a super-big shout-out to N7GR, Greg, who was a
"2-2" and had the perseverance to hang with me until I got his info
right and in my log. He and Chuck were both new ones for me on 75m.
73,
