Comments:
First contact on 15m went well, however second one took several tries. Before
the third contact, I reviewed my setup and discovered TX power was all the way
down. That barely moves a needle on my IC-756PROIII. Turned the power up and
things went smoother. I started late and could not last the duration after
taking my evening medicine. However, I did get in a little over six hours.
More than enough time to make many more points, but I did learn more and
enjoyed a kind of comradeship of seeing calls that I have contacted before. 20
meters was the best band for me. I worked over 30 contacts in one hour S&P.
80 meters was noisy. The big signals were only 10 dB over the noise. To prove
that 10 meters still exists I made one contact there, and of course it was CA.
