One Man, One Day, One Radio, One computer devoid of telnet spots, One patch of
woods with only wires.
I decided since I could not devote a full 36hrs, to do a repeat of last years
classic and see if I could improve upon it.
Last year was: 1363Q, 575px, 2.4M pts
This year was: 1906Q, 731px, 4.935M pts
As usual, met tons of fabulous QSO partners and a couple not-so-much.
Prop and activity was pretty good, so it was very hard to tear myself away,
sometimes suddenly, from some real fine rate hours. Such is life. Radio is a
game (a great game!) and life is life. Sigh.
I felt especially proud of myself decoding the following on the very first go:
Gross QSOs=1915 Dupes=9 Net QSOs=1906
Unique callsigns worked = 1431
The best 60 minute rate was 131/hour from 0008 to 0107
The best 30 minute rate was 142/hour from 1555 to 1624
The best 10 minute rate was 168/hour from 0057 to 0106
The best 1 minute rates were:
4 QSOs/minute 20 times.
3 QSOs/minute 151 times.
2 QSOs/minute 422 times.
1 QSOs/minute 529 times.
There were 27 bandchanges and 1 (0.1%) probable 2nd radio QSOs.
