Comments:
Was in and out of the shack, mostly passing around towards the end. While
needing a distraction to avoid the stresses brought about from watching the AFC
Championship USA Football Game with the home-town greats, The New England
Patriots. The 'PATs' secured another trip to the championship, or, the Super
Bowl.
FT8 Mode is the wave of the future. It is easy, tons of fun, Any licensed ham
with a multi-mode rig and a PC can benefit from using it. While not in the
shack, I had remote access to the shack PC and was able to knock out QSOs
remotely. All but 2 CW QSOs above were FT8.
It drove me a bit crazy with the inability to easily check duplicate stations
with WSJT-X, this may be since I didn't start a new .adif log, but the dupe
checks cost some time. I found that the 'Visible Dupesheet' in N1MM Logger+
helped to quickly ID potential Dupes. Also the HamApps applications helped quite
a bit.
This contest conflicts with NAQP on Saturday Afternoon/Evening, so hang in there
for Sunday!
