Comments:
Started off on 15m in the FT4 area, but seemed like there was little activity,
so I moved to the FT8 area on 15. Stayed there until there was not much activity
on 15 and them moved to 20m FT8. Spent 5 minutes on 10m at 2100Z with nothing
decoded.
Used only WSJT-X, so CQed almost 100%, except for a few DX countries. Had about
4% dupes, but score was slightly better than 2019 in about the same amount of op
time.
Had to manually enter some QSO exchange data in WSJT-X logger when it had
missing exchange data (even though the exchange was visible in the decoded data
in the Rx window).
Tried to get remote operation functioning to use on Sunday, but remote desktop
app interfered with USB audio connection between rig and computer. Will have to
see if there's a solution.
Rig: Icom IC-7610 100 watts
Antenna: SteppIR DB-36 at 70 ft
