Comments:
Interesting conditions, indeed. The low bands were noisy the first night and
quiet the second. The high bands were slow to open Saturday morning and 10
wasn't so good, but 10 was fantastic Sunday. I did seem to run out of stations
to work on Sunday which was a surprised considering the good conditions. Never
did have a real high rate, not even on 10 Sunday. 20 and 15 were very packed,
it was difficult to find a frequency and on Sunday when i did find one it
wasn't particularly productive. With 20 open to EU pretty much 24 hrs/day and
15 for about 12hrs, it got tiring hearing the same very loud multis all the
time, but i guess that's the penalty for good conditions.
Hearing and working VU2RCT with an s9+ signal at 19z on 10 Sunday was the
highlight of the contest.
I made some changes to the station inside in the couple days before the contest
to try and implement SO2R, they didn't work out as expected so I spent quite a
bit of the first couple hours troubleshooting. Finally gave up and ran with
one radio on 40, the other on all the other bands and no real SO2R.
My target going in was 4.0meg, thought it would take 2000q to get there but my
points/q and mults were higher than expected so made it with less Qs. Didn't
think i'd get there Saturday night, but 10 came thru on Sunday.
There were some really big numbers out there, congrats to those stations and
thanks to everyone for the Qs.
