Comments:
To do something a little different I did not run QRP in this contest. SSB QRP
is really hard in any case. Although I had many QRP stations call me and
they were heard just fine.
Since I would only be operating part time I decided to stick to a single band.
I chose 15 right before the start after tuning around and liking what I heard.
It was a good choice.
I missed mults and many Q's due to a recent increase of suburban broadband
hash when pointing toward Pacific and Asia. I ran some JA when the noise
occasionally relented. The runs to Europe were excellent even with my
small station. I abandoned runs and good openings when I had to be
elsewhere.
