Comments:
The main objective was to beat my 40M LP score from the 2016 contest. So, I was
pleased to find that I ended up with a raw score which is 37% greater than last
year. Propagation seemed OK but strong lightning QRN from local storms on the
Saturday and Sunday evenings meant that many stations were difficult to copy
and call signs had to be repeated multiple times. Low power operation also
meant that it was difficult to hold a run frequency for long before a higher
power station took over the frequency. However, I found that being forced to
move my run frequency often proved to be beneficial, as the move would generate
new RBN spots and fresh callers. Thanks to everyone for the QSOs and making this
such an enjoyable contest!
