Comments:
A good contest with fairly good participation. SSB contests seem to have more
whiners than CW for sure. I had two guys slip down from well over 2 Khz away
and say the frequency is busy OM. What I thought to myself and kept rollin' as
I had been occupying the frequency for a number of hours. One old boy even told
me he heard me working people up and down the band and he knew I had not been on
"his" frequency until I called a few CQs. I asked both characters what
kind of radios they were uusing and didn't get a response so I just kept
hammering since I felt I was the one actually occupying the frequency. Oh, well
I'm glad the better contests are on CW where complainers don't exist.
Worked all 48 lower states and a handful of Canadian provinces. There must have
been a dozen or more NE stations on. I guess they are busy in the the cornfields
during Sweepstakes and NAQP because rarely does a NE mult show up in those
tests. Several from both Dakotas another pleasant surprise. Called by a number
of XE stations as activity from there very good.
Friend KI0I whipped me score wise with his big 'ol loop tied in the trees of
Missouri.
Thanks to N2NT and the CQ gang for anothrt fine contest in their cololection of
good ones.
73, Jerry K5YAA
